This makes broad claims similar to Eilon's as well (it also fails to back them up). Although you tell us it has nothing to do with how 'sexy' (sexually attractive or exciting) a rape victim is...
Why else would a rapist usually choose a woman over a dog, horse, cat, or other specie (edit: or even the other sex)? It isn't as though those aren't available (Type in something along the lines of 'bestiality sex' into a google search if you are that interested...). And the rapist can be quite violent and aggressive with them (another thing no different from raping women).
So this question remains... why choose a woman over anything else? The answer really must come down to what/whom the rapist finds 'sexy' (see sexually attractive or exciting) enough for him to force sex upon. (This is no different for women rapists either). There is one of the greatest roots to rape... it is not only an act of violence... but it is an act of violence that is inherently of a sexual nature. Therefore it is only logical to conclude that sexiness (as I showed with richness above) is at least a part of the decision making process either A: when the person begins to plan (however long before the rape occurs) the rape, B: in the target (intended victim) acquisition, C: actions taken by the rapist during the act. <non-mutually exclusive.>
Also, you should note that animals rape other animals... and that humans are animals to begin with. This issue has 100% to do with sex.

Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
