It's an extremely naive point of view. I am no expert since I only saw a few documentaries and read a few articles but each time it was said that black women rape was very prevalent since it was simply seen as way for breading more slaves. The high society didn't want white people breeding with with slaves not because it was morally wrong but because they they consider slaves way beneath them. Although It didn't stop them from renting them to sailors to satisfy their needs.
