Did you know that elective abortion is always illegal in Germany? 

The protection of the „unborn life“ always outweighs the pregnant person‘s right to bodily autonomy. Seems too crazy for a country which heavily preaches gender equality.

Are you telling me german women have to go outside germany to do an abortion? 😱

Elaborate plz

lol the twisted world of laws strikes again. 

My mind has a hard time to comprehend how legalization is unconstitutional but depenalization (when is a defacto legalization) is constitutional 😂

Lawmakers tried to make elective abortion legal in Germany twice, but both times the Federal constitutional court said no no no.

They invented a new concept - it is illegal, but will not be punished up to 12 weeks. Abortion-seeking people have to undergo mandatory counseling, to realize the value of the "unborn life" and encourage them to carry the embryo/fetus.

It’s one of the most restrictive abortion regulations in “developed countries”.

So to answer your question - it happens, but rarely.

Laws are being revised currently! If liberalized we can stay tuned for another case before the Federal Constitutional Court 👀

no but u have to speak to a doctor and then it‘s mandatory to wait 3 days or smth before u can tell them ur decision 😄
