Sadly personal space is no longer accepted in our society. As far as I am concerned you handled the situation very well. Once upon a time people would not intentionally touch the seat you are sitting in. If they did so it came with an apology.
I have no issues about my personal space per sae, but I find it extremely rude and annoying if someone behind me is holding, kicking, or touching my seat. I have paid for this seat, it is mine. You keep yourself to the seat you’ve paid for and we’ll get along fine.
I do not understand why that woman decided to address you, but it is my own experience that people looking for negativity find it wherever they look. Try not to engage them in the future, they can be unpredictable. Plus: YOU DO NOT NEED TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF. Really, how were you being inconsiderate? Because you dared get on the bus and not want a perfect stranger “to be all up in your bidness” as my kids say.
