Nobody I have ever met has given me that impression. I think it's funny that people seem to think that people who rape, they're just part of the "culture". No, they're just psychopaths who don't have empathy. They don't care whether or not rape is wrong and I see absolutely no one who thinks that rape is acceptable.
The term rape culture isn't about rapists. Rapists are monsters and psychopaths, most people aren't and would never be rapists. But rape culture is about a society of people who want to turn a blind eye to the victims or worse make excuses for the rapists. The boys will be boys mentality, and it hurts both genders when it comes to rape.
