Wheels of Power

This is the Duluth model of the Wheel of Equality.
It sets out a clear picture of the dynamics of equality in intimate relationships.

“In life, many men and women simply crave to set up a life-long caring partnership, to build a home together and to live securely, happily ever after.” Clare Murphy
But it’s not always easy to make that dream a reality.
The Wheel is a useful monitoring tool for keeping your relationship on the right track.

Not everyone is safe and free



Here are some questions for women who are in a relationship with a man.
Can you answer ‘yes’ to these questions?

  1. I trust this man 100%
  2. He respects me totally without a doubt
  3. He’s always honest and I feel completely safe to be honest with him
  4. He definitely respects my privacy
  5. I feel totally free to be myself round him anywhere anytime
  6. I adamantly feel safe with him – always

Be honest with yourself.
If you answered ‘no’ to these questions – it is very probable you are with a man that is engaged in a slow process of gaining more and more emotional control over you and your life.
