I wonder how these 4-8% of men would do on a sociopath survey. Supposedly somewhere around 2-4% is said to be sociopathic. If I had to guess, I'd say they align pretty closely, the reason being that one must completely lack empathy to commit a rape.

While I agree, I think society has yet to condemn acquaintance rape in a way that would make all those who commit it realize what they are doing is wrong. A surprising number of men commit rape but don't even realize what they are doing is wrong and don't realize it's rape.
When society thinks of rape, it imagines a stranger with a gun in a dark alley. In most cases though, it couldn't be farther from the truth.
