Just my opinion, But I think the suden suprise and shock of a groin strike is what temporatily incopacitats. That is my personal experiance, as a man, and I think it is consistent with the last several posts.
A groin squease or grab is diferent. I agreee with those who are saying that a grab or squese would be likely to provoke an extreem violent and powerfull reaction.
A strike to the groin makes you want to get away. With a grab, you can not get away, you can only act fast to crush your attacker. I think that this reaction is instinctive and predictable. Be carefull.
Strike and move or strike and strike. Holding is not to the advantage of the smaller or weaker fighter. If you can't move, then strike to create space so that you can move. The groin grab is contrary to all of this. Using it will put you at great risk.
Use the groin strike prior to his taking you to the floor. After that you need your hands to defend your face. Keep them high and attack the eyes and throat, while trying to gain space by bucking and interposing your legs.
I an not a grapler though. Perhaps MW has some advice on throwing off the pin.
