I see, but it seems you are mixing things that are before and after she got over the Anthony thing, and you are considering as assault something that is not for her (street kid) as clearly indicated in the game and by Zorlun.
The Russian mobster I remember she could avoid (no link with Anthony). The episode on the Motel if I remember well could also be avoided, and more importantly, if from one side put her in contact with the old guy (definitively a creep and tentative rapist), also with Dum Dum, the big nice fellow (so, a positive image of a man, not the brightest, but sweet and reminding her of her brother).
It is up to you to choose whether your Myriam is wary of, or avoids potential "situations" with, men, Zorlun has made the game on purpose so people can a bit customise Myriam and choose how she interacts with people and situations, but definitively, you should not try to push for it for everybody and every possible variation of Myriam and her story.
E.g. for players who kicked out Anthony ASAP, had her refusing guys and sex opportunities and/or get control in them, learn to fight, report the Russian mobster to the police and identify him, "scamble eggs" in the alley, examples of actions that actually can make her feel stronger, she definitively has no reason to be wary of men, because she may feel strong enough to face anything.
Don't forget the game has a number of "holes in time" that can allow Myriam to get over many things.
But let's cut going around it (from my side, not yours) - your original argument was about what a real woman would probably do, thus your suggestion to Zorlun that would be normal that Myriam becomes more wary of men.
All the big text from me, even here, was because I preferred to avoid referring to reality directly.
It depends from a lot of factors, as well as (but not only) from the time past, if and how much a woman will be weary of all men, or not, after having had what can certainly be classified as traumatic experiences for them.
I knew personally women who had problems of a certain type, although in different contexts, situations and ages, so just two examples.
One was actually very freely in contact with guys, and relatively liberal about about a certain type of behaviour/activitiess, she had developed another kind of problem, but if anything, she was the opposite of shying away from guys, she was looking for attention and acceptance, even in a certain way, although for reasons I am not going to detail, was obvious she had not really got over the past situation.
Another one, despite not having got really past the situation for various reasons (and remember in the game is indicated Myriam did), did not have any problem or fear of interacting with men, it was only in certain intimate situations with someone she really liked that she could be instinctively uneasy.
Let's just continue to enjoy the game as a game, even if Zorlun has made a lot of efforts to create in his mind a backstory for the main characters, and to give us the possibilty to make choices for them.
