She's only a victim if she decides to be one. If I were "sexually assaulted" by a girl, I would not necessarily feel victimized by it. There is only a victim if someone is negatively affected by it. If she didn't mind, there is no victim. Legally, there is no victim unless charges are pressed, and therefore there is no legal victim either. I'm not saying that there aren't people who try to justify or excuse negative things that others do to them, but at the same time, not all people find the same things to be negative (and to different extents). It is all fine and good to probe as to whether she is simply in denial, but to push your own beliefs of whether or not she is a victim upon her is going too far.
