Who is not allowed to live together as a couple in Germany?

Why — for every option

  1. A — Two adults of different genders may live together regardless of the age difference.
  2. B — Two adult men may live together regardless of the age difference and their sexual orientation — same-sex partnerships are legally protected.
  3. C — Two adult women may live together regardless of the age difference.
  4. D — Correct: at 13, Anne is below the age of criminal responsibility and a minor; living together as a couple with a 25-year-old would be incompatible with child protection law and the criminal provisions on the sexual abuse of children (§ 176 Criminal Code).
