text: As a DV survivor, I can tell you that it is absolutely unacceptable for women who have not been abused to do this. I recently had this happen to someone I know. Fortunately in their case, they have video of the entire incident. For those that don't, go to court, explain your side and have witnesses that can collaborate your story. I hope this isn't happing to you, but it's a horrible thing to claim something that is so real and make it questionable for those who really are in trouble. Some women do this I know, it makes me afraid for those that really do need protection. It is an abominable thing to claim if untrue. For the woman who is lying and for the family consequences most of all. It saddens me.
