And whether a reasonable person would feel victimized is a better standard anyway.

I'll totally agree with this. How I felt about it isn't as critical of a component as whether or not I gave consent. I was assaulted. I certainly did not have the capacity to give consent, and under current objective consent standards, that's a no-go. (I never investigated what the sexual assault standards were in that country, because given my ambivalence about it afterwards, it wasn't something I wanted to pursue.)
How I feel may have an impact if I were able to consent or if doling out punishment or damages. How I feel also has a lot to do with whether charges are brought up at all.
