I strongly suspect that most non rapists aren't motivated to non rape. They're just not rapists. 
Ever wonder about that, how you would manage to drudge through your existence if you were transported to some other time or place, when pillaging and raiding (and raping) were relatively common and tolerated, if not entirely accepted or thought of as a moral "good"? Do you think that you might try to convince a few of them not to do that? How would you go about it, understanding that they don't believe what you believe?
Would you preach the gospel...or something else?
(I agree with you entirely on that last sentence btw, )
