From what I understand, it's about young men who want to find a suitable sexual outlet. Since they're taught to view women of their own age and ethnic group with something resembling respect, they're meant to be off-limits. So, they find an outlet by raping girls of other ethnicities.
It's sort of like courtly love. A knight was meant to be devoted to a lady of his choice, but they weren't allowed to have sex. So, the only outlet for carnal desires was by fucking those who weren't subject to the laws of chivalry: the peasants. And the peasants didn't have to be willing; I recently re-read Le Morte d'Arthur and found a scene where, after Galahad had a courtship that didn't work out, Launcelot suggests he rape some peasant women. Indeed, in the Caxton version, where an unnamed knight carries off a screaming woman, presumably to rape her and the King's only reaction is to be glad he doesn't have to hear her screaming.
The noble knights of Camelot, ladies and germs!
And, apparently, this was actually on the milder end of the scale. In fact, this sort of thing is where the old custom of "Droit de Seigneur," or "prima noctis," as Braveheart called it, that a lord reserved the right to take his serfs' virgnities, came from. Granted, it apparently wasn't written in law, but since the people in power acted like it was, nobody questioned it.
It's more or less the same thing here.

Sir Thomas Malory Wrote:With this there came a knight riding all armed on a great horse, and took the lady away with him with force, and ever she cried and made great dole. When she was gone the king was glad, for she made such a noise.
