Always resist sexual battery if you are stronger ?

I just read a thread (in this forum):

http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/general...ml#post2569130

And since this is a variation of the topic, i decide to start a new thread.
I remember a sexual battery (not rape) case a few years ago. A female jogger got stopped by two young boys. She did not physically resist the attack and she managed to talk her way out of the situation. She later admitted that she could have fought her way out, but was afraid to harm the boys. Well the police called her brave, and there was no one who questioned her decision to not fight the attack off. Shouldn't she have physical resisted the attack?

So what if a guy got stopped by the "Broitzman gang" ? If he acted like the female jogger he probably would have been sentenced. If he used force he would have been sentenced for violence.
