they’re German. The age of consent in Germany is 14. so this is typical american “look over there” bullshit when we have many states in this country allowing minors to be married off to much older spouses and no one seems to be in a hurry to change them here. so why get upset about what happens there? 12 states have no minimum age when all exemptions are taken into account. These states are: California, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming. yes , in super progressive california you can marry a 10 year old WTF
