I wish you wouldn’t be so hard on yourself. Look on it this way, too. You’d been training for a long time to teach your body what to do if someone touched you without your consent. Muscle memory (probably) would have kicked in if that woman had tried to touch you, but you had never trained for what to do if someone, especially a woman, visually assaulted/flashed you. (And there’s really no training for that either.)
