Domestic violence can be deadly.

More than half of female homicide victims are killed by a current or former male intimate partner.

Behind that statistic are women whose relationships became dangerous—and a reminder that escalating violence should always be taken seriously.

Domestic violence can include physical and s*xual violence, strangulation, stalking, threats, intimidation, and coercive control. It doesn’t always begin with severe violence, but it can escalate.

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we remember those whose lives have been lost, stand with survivors, and continue working toward communities where survivors are heard, believed, and connected with help.

Know the signs. Take violence seriously. Support survivors. 💜

Did you know? It wasn’t until 1993 that marital r**e was criminalized in all 50 states.

For much of U.S. history, marriage was treated as implied consent to s*x. That history matters, because the misconception that someone “owes” their spouse or partner s*x hasn’t entirely disappeared.

Marriage does not equal consent.

Nearly 1 in 5 women in the U.S. has experienced s*xual violence by an intimate partner during her lifetime.

Sexual violence does not become less serious because the person responsible is someone you love, live with, date, or marry. A wedding ring is not consent.
Consent is required every time. Sexual activity involving force, threats, coercion, or someone who is unable to consent is not made consensual by a relationship or marriage.

At Michigan Forensic Examiners, survivors receive compassionate, judgment-free medical forensic care—regardless of their relationship to the person who harmed them.

Marriage is not consent. Period.

Our Paint the V: No Shave November Edition shirts are here—and they’re exactly the right amount of inappropriate for a very appropriate cause.

Because underneath the bushes, brushes, and laughs is something we take seriously: normalizing women’s bodies so they cannot be weaponized against us.

Come paint with us, laugh with us, talk about the things we’re usually told not to talk about—and snag a shirt while you’re at it.

Why support our 'Paint the V' event?

Because talking about bodies shouldn’t be embarrassing—and talking about s*xual assault shouldn’t be either.

As forensic nurses, we ask survivors to talk about incredibly personal things: their bodies, s*xual contact, injuries, consent, and what happened to them. Those conversations are even harder when we’ve been taught that certain body parts are embarrassing or inappropriate to talk about.

Paint the V helps normalize the conversation.

And while you’re painting, laughing, eating and having a drink with friends, you’re also supporting Michigan Forensic Examiners and the specialized medical care we provide to children, teens, and adults impacted by s*xual assault and violence.

🌿 Come paint a bush.
🎨 Start a conversation.
💜 Help us care for survivors

Domestic Violence Awareness: No visible injury does not mean no injury.

Strangulation is one of the most dangerous forms of intimate partner violence—and it can leave little to no visible evidence on the outside.

Research has found that 50% of strangulation survivors had no visible external injury. Yet serious internal injury and complications can still occur.

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we're reminding our community: take strangulation seriously. Survivors deserve to be heard, believed, and offered appropriate medical evaluation—even when there isn't a bruise to see.

At Michigan Forensic Examiners, our forensic nurses are trained to assess and document strangulation-related injuries and provide specialized, trauma-informed care.

No bruise ≠ no injury. No visible injury ≠ nothing happened. 💜

💙 Your story belongs to you.

The national conversation surrounding Jane Doe is an important reminder: experiencing s*xual violence does not mean surrendering your right to privacy.

At MFE, survivors can seek medical forensic care without making their experience public—and without being forced to report to law enforcement. We protect patient privacy, explain available options, and let each survivor decide what happens next.

Your name doesn’t have to be known for your experience to matter.

You deserve privacy. You deserve choices. You deserve care.
