 Foreword and author's disclaimer.
   This is a companion piece to my `100 Reminiscences of a marriage to a
child'.  It is set in a fictional island community where sex with children
is legal, and as such is for fantasy only and not intended to condone
paedophilia.

   CHILD BRIDES - 20 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
   Child Brides - 20 FAQs is for information for those who, on the island,
take the `marriage option' (as opposed to `casual' status).  More
particularly, it is for those who desire to select a `child' bride, loosely
defined as under 16 years of age.  It aims to concisely answer 20 of the
most frequently asked questions by newcomers or applicants to the island,
and provides an essential compendium of facts for those men seriously
considering marriage to a girl-child on the island.  You should remember
that we are an autonomous republic with our own laws and culture.
   1 What ages are there to choose from?
   Currently the Island sets the minimum age for a child to be married as
8, although there is a pending debate on whether this should be lowered to
7.  Any ages up to adult are available, but virgins are scarcer from 12 and
above.  Girls below the age of 8 are not generally made available for
sexual interaction, because we believe they need an educational period
where they are old enough to first learn something of the social
expectations on the island, and to have an infancy of innocence.
   2 Can I choose `my type'?
   Certainly.  The island strives to provide as good a cross-section of
looks, racial characteristics and personality as possible within the
constraints of our small population (350 male, 650 female, 400 of whom
under 20).  Most ethnic types are represented, as well as different class
backgrounds.  People have come to the island from a variety of origins and
backstories, but many also have been born here.  The selection brochure
(see Q.3) describes these details for each child.  Inevitably, some
characteristics are rare, such as red hair.  Only girls of at least average
prettiness form the island's intake.
   3 How is selection made?
   Each month a brochure of available child-brides is published, containing
at least 10 girls from 8 to 15 from which selection can be made.  There is
on average 5 men aiming to choose a child-bride in any one month, and first
pickings is given on the basis of longevity of island residence.  The
brochure gives information on each child, as well as face and body photos
(in bikini, and in a dress), and they can all be met for a one-to-one
conversation prior to choosing.  You can instead always wait for the next
month's brochure.
   4 Will the child be willing?
   The answer is a basic `yes', but it must be understood they may have the
shyness and a certain level of reluctance or anxiety natural to their age.
However, on the island, the educational system and culture is geared to
their acceptance of this social balance of power.  She will understand it
is her duty, but will also genuinely wish to please you, varying with her
age and personality.  A closely related question, `will she love me?' is
often asked.  The answer is `yes', but cannot be guaranteed - often a
genuine loyalty and affection forms, above mere obedience.
   5 Is penetrative vaginal sex allowed?
   It is not only allowed, it is encouraged - but with due care to her
physical limitations (naturally this will vary with her age, as well as the
size of your penis).  Indeed, it is a rule that on the wedding night, you
MUST consummate (see Q.11).  A husband then takes for granted that all
conventional aspects of sex, including attempts at penetration, will form a
key part of married life with his child-wife.  `Attempts' is a key word, as
child sex inevitably differs in style and skill with adult sex, and
practise is required to yield results.
   6 Will I need to use a condom?
   No, although you may if you wish for any of the sex acts you engage in
with your child-bride, for example if you wish to `ease her in' to
eroticism.  However, it is taken for granted that all forms of sex will
have full and proper intimacy, as with any authentic marriage.  You
absolutely are not obliged to `protect her' from the realities of
ejaculation and semen.  Also note that the island's medical facilities are
advanced, including inoculation against all types of STD.  If she is of
fertile age, reliable contraceptive pills are provided.
   7 Are any of the rules different at different ages of child?
   No, not in the sense of sex acts you can undertake, or levels of
intimacy.  Regardless of her age, your bride is expected to engage in any
hard-core eroticism and affections you desire.  If you select an
8-year-old, she is your wife in exactly the same sense that a 16-year-old
would be.  However, due care must be used as per her size, and a certain
empathy should be given to her developing psychology according to her age.
Enjoy your rights with common sense and sensitivity.
   8 Can I impregnate her?
   Yes, if your bride is of the age of fertility, this is your right.  She
is your wife, and accordingly pregnancy is seen as a normal and expected
state of affairs, but ultimately your decision.  We advise husbands to hold
off attempts at it until she is at least 14, to enjoy your relationship
without such pressures, though the island's medical facility would give
excellent care.  We also recommend you discuss it with her, and obtain her
consent (remember, she is culturally predisposed to giving it), for the
sake of your relationship and the prospects of the unborn child.
   9 May I anally fuck her?
   Yes, this is an allowed activity on the island, in the context of
child-sex.  It should, however, be remembered that the term `fuck' is
relative.  As with vaginal penetration, with a young girl the act of sodomy
requires delicacy and caution.  The use of lubrication is virtually a given
and, dependent on her age, you should not expect more than a partial
penetration.  With practise, however, many girls prove quite capable.  It
is a good symbol of male social authority in our culture, but also it is
fine if you see this particular act as distasteful.
   10 Will she suck my cock?
   If you wish this, then she is absolutely expected to comply.  Indeed, we
encourage this as a staple feature of your sexual relationship,
particularly where the bride is pre-teen.  This is because it is less
hazardous than vaginal or anal penetration, although some caution and
common sense must still be used, and as always you should pace your demands
with some empathy.  It is the most widespread paedophilic act on the
island, and may range from delicate foreplay to full ejaculation in her
mouth with or without swallow.  The choice is ultimately yours.
   11 What is the `Consummation Rule'?
   This is an important rule for those who wish to take a child-bride.  It
applies to the wedding night: the husband MUST consummate the marriage. 
Put clinically, he must achieve at least one sufficient penetration and
ejaculation to leave detectable semen in her vagina, regardless of her age.
This is verified the next day by our medical centre, and should be seen as
a way to prove your basic commitment to the island's ethos of paedophile
sex.  It is nevertheless expected you use due care, and the desired result
can be achieved with the most minimal penetration.
   12 Is anything prohibited?
   Yes, many things are prohibited for the sake of the children's welfare,
although nothing that any genuine paedophile (literally, `loving' children)
desires.  `Unnecessary violence' is a term we use to embrace most of what
is prohibited.  This applies to undue or injurious force in sex with a
child (minor difficulties or accidents are expected), or general sadism. 
The extreme sexual depravities such as scat or bestiality are forbidden, as
is requiring the child to give anilingus (although you may give it to her).
You are expected to use a blend of nurturing and authority, but not
brutality.
   13 I may genuinely fall in love with her.  Is this acceptable?
   Absolutely this is acceptable, and we consider it to be the ideal of a
man's relationship to his child-bride.  It is expected that you will lust
for her, love her, and feel friendship, protectiveness and possessiveness
for her.  In many ways it is an old-fashioned marriage ethos, where you
have tremendous tenderness for your wife, yet are the master of the house.
You may wish to relate to your child-wife in a non-sexual way much of the
time, so long as you subscribe to an erotic element in your attraction to
her.
   14 Will I be able to do proper French-kissing with her?
   This is a basic expectation that she must attempt to fulfil, regardless
of her age.  Since it is a staple expression of love and/or lust for many
men, it is a widely practised paedophilic act on the island, and
particularly appropriate to the context of marriage.  You must, however,
accept that she may lack `skill' or `enthusiasm' for it at a very young
age. If pre-pubescent, it may not seem natural to her at all, and you may
be required to be something of a kindly leader and teacher.
   15 Will I be frowned upon or persecuted for choosing very young?
   No, you will not be judged unfavourably by anyone if you select the
lower end of the age range (8-10), nor any other age.  On the island, men
and their wives or casual dates of all ages are openly seen, but levels of
decorum in public shows of affection are equal to anywhere else.  In
restaurants for example, men and girl-children are often seen having a
`romantic evening out'.  You would only be frowned upon for maltreating
your child-spouse, and it is expected and respected that your private life
with her includes sex.
   16 Can I share or wife-swap?
   Yes, provision is made for this, but it is a carefully regulated for the
sake of fairness and avoiding rampant sexual envy and competition, also for
the children's safety.  2 days in every month (no more, no less) must be
given to making your child-wife available for sharing/swapping.  You
publish these days to the public database a week in advance.  On these
days, you can select another man's wife (any age) who happens to be
available for share at that time, or else you can select a non-married
woman or child.
   17 How long do I have her for?
   The marriage contract is for exactly 12 months, at the end of which you
can renew for a further 12 months if you wish.  The power of choice in this
is entirely yours, but we advise consultation with your wife, no matter
what her age.  A divorce is possible at the end of any month, but only if
you have reasonable grounds for dissatisfaction with her (disobedience,
infidelity, violence towards you).  She is only entitled to divorce you if
investigation proves you have badly and unfairly treated her (intimate
sexual demands of her are fair).
   18 Can I form sexual relationships outside of my marriage?
   No.  This may seem a strange restriction, in view of the island's
permissiveness in paedophile sexuality, but we find this is necessary for
the maintenance of the society and avoiding chaotic competitiveness. 
Adultery - that is, outside of the 2 appointed share days per month (see
Q.16) - is frowned upon, with penalties (possibly having your wife
confiscated).  The island's marriage option brings with it a level of
commitment, and if this does not suit you, you should take the status of
`casual' instead, with the regular casual dates this entails.
   19 I feel bad about this.  It is `child abuse', right?
   In the modern western world, paedophile sex and child marriage are
considered forms of child abuse.  We, however, regard the matter
fundamentally as a cultural one, and you should relax in the autonomous
legality we give it.  `Abuse' is only extant where the child is treated
aggressively or maliciously beyond the requirements of her cooperation in
eroticism.  She may be reluctant at times, but it is seen as something she
will grow into and regard as a norm, even enjoy.  A measure of guilt is
natural, as a carry-over from your former society.
   20 Will I have a ceremony/wedding day with her?
   Of course, this is important to our culture as well as something you may
personally desire.  After selecting your child-bride, a wedding day is set
(usually 2 weeks hence), with 75 guests including key dignitaries of the
island.  You both can choose who to invite, or else places are filled by a
computer-generated lottery.  It is a fine way to get to know other
residents, as well as a symbol of commitment.  At the end of the day you
will retire privately to a honeymoon accommodation on the island to
consummate with her.
