Being kicked in the testicles was no doubt traumatic for you as a child. I am sorry this physical assault happened to you. You cannot know the motives of the girls who did this. You can only speculate. I have no doubt that your pain, both psychological and physical is real. I hope that you heal from this pain. However, being kicked in the testicles constitutes a physical assault and not a sexual one generally, unless you want to claim that in a fight with a man if he kicks your balls he has sexually assaulted you. It is the nature of the assault and not the sex of the person that assaults you that determines these things.
BTW, we cross-posted. If you want to see my opinion on women hitting men, please read below.
