Age of consent in Germany is a staggered system. With 14 you're able to consent under specific conditions (them being there's no exploitative element to the relationship), but still could file charge against the older person if they're over 16. With 16 the first rule still applies; from 18 on you're able to consent, period.
So for example when I was 14 I had a boyfriend, also 14, and neither of us committed any crime under this ruling. The law acknowledges that teenagers are allowed to have relationships with each other while putting every borderline case through a case-by-case hearing at court.
It's actually a really good idea, so it kinda is a fun fact.
That's a great idea.
At 14/15 you want to fool about if you have an equally young partner and there's nothing really criminal about it - just discovering sexuality.
14 and 30 though really does have a different ring to it and if that's considered, then credit to the system.

Oh damn, I didn't know it was that deep.
