Jag, i believe the psychological consequences for a rape victim/victims relatives is much deeper than a 'bolstered ego' for the attacker. Rape is an unacceptable and disgusting act, but do not deny that the attacker is satisfying primal, dominating and sexual urges while doing so, its not like a man thinks "fuck yeah im the biggest, strongest and most powerful lion in the pride!" it's a little more complicated than that.
