- Tom (20 Jahre) und Klaus (45 Jahre)Tom (20 years) and Klaus (45 years)
- Sofie (35 Jahre) und Lisa (40 Jahre)Sofie (35 years) and Lisa (40 years)
- Anne (13 Jahre) und Tim (25 Jahre)Anne (13 years) and Tim (25 years)
Explanation
German child-protection and criminal laws forbid sexual relationships with children under 14, making cohabitation as a couple with a 13-year-old legally impossible. The other listed pairings involve consenting adults, which is permissible regardless of age difference or gender. Therefore the pairing of Anne (13) and Tim (25) is not allowed.
