Where did you read that? I spend a lot of my time reading about human evolutionary history and I have never encountered any academic sources which suggested that the human species became what it is through rape or that there was no consensual sex. (I really do want to know where you heard those statements).

Maybe it is commonly accepted among forum posters, but not among evolutionary biologists. Most evolutionary biologists would agree that humans have a survival instinct. Very few would agree that humans have an instinct to preserve the species.
