Yes.
 

what makes rape so bad that it would cause
"regression" in someone's mind any more than
2-ton umbrellas, spatulas, getting stabbed,
etc etc?

Ranma is rather used to ordinary violence.  It doesn't engage the same 
sense of hopelessness and powerlessness that rape does.  Ranma is too 
good at defending himself normally for any amount of joe ordinary Nerima 
level violence to have much of a psychological impact on him, especially 
since he can dish it out as well as he can take it.  Being raped is 
another kettle of fish entirely.

Yes.
