Review (in 1996):

Not until his wife left him did Blain Nelson know the degree of his abuse of her. Now the world knows, via the Net. In text form, Nelson offers two frank testimonials, and includes a half dozen or so from other contributors, including victims.

The notes are sometimes weirdly personal: a week after his wife's departure, Nelson reports, he "returned to my house kinda cold and having discovered a plantar wart I hadn't known existed".

He also lists about 40 questions to help readers identify themselves as an abuser or a victim, and emphasizes that just because a person can say "I didn't hit him/her" doesn't necessarily mean there isn't an emotionally abusive relationship (as Nelson's personal account illustrates).

An unsettling and highly personal site.

As reviewed in the 1996 "World Wide Web Top 1000" - a review of the Top 5% of all Web Sites in 1996.
