Women are vulnerable at most of the places wherever they are. There are many atrocities that women are facing in this world. We need to take perfect care of them. They are the ones who needs complete care and patronage. It is really sad that women are vulnerable not only when they are outside but there are also instances when they are victim of domestic abuse by their close ones as well.

The woman who started the campaign wrote, “I’m heavily pregnant and the baby’s father is very abusive. With words, his hands. I’ve been petrified for so long and even more with the baby coming soon. I was at the hospital yesterday, he was with me, he never leaves my side anymore. I had to have an examination so the consultant asked me to lie on the bed and drew the curtain."

“I leaned over and took the pen out of his pocket, pulled his hand over to me and wrote HELP ME. I didn’t have to say a word. This campaign gave me the strength and the idea how to ask for help,” she said.

As the idea has worked for many people, but there is an inadvertent flipside which was pointed out by Polkinghorne, the head of a prevention center for domestic violence. He said, “The Black Dot Campaign is a very well-meaning idea, but a bad idea nonetheless.”

Dina's statement continued: “The campaign is getting a lot of attention, so abusers may also be aware of it. They might question why their partner would have the dot on their hand. A well-meaning family member could also see the dot, and inadvertently compound the violence.”

It does not really matter whether there will be a flipside or not. We must appreciate the intent of the person to find out something which is helpful for women suffering from domestic abuse. And, you must support the campaign as it has the potential to bail someone out from the hostile environment.
