  • I went in to read the German law itself and it’s basically only illegal if certain conditions aren’t met and that is getting a counseling beforehand.

    I think that’s a bit of a far stretch and misleading to say it’s illegal but rarely punished etc.

    Also the headline is completely wrong, as it is already allowed to get an abortion up to week 12.

    Here is the part of the legal text defining the requirements.


    Section 218a Exemption from punishment for abortion

    (1) The elements of the offence under section 218 are not deemed fulfilled if

    1.  the pregnant woman requests the termination of pregnancy and demonstrates to the physician by producing the certificate referred to in section 219 (2) sentence 2 that she obtained counselling at least three days prior to the procedure,

    2.  the termination is performed by a physician and

    3.  no more than 12 weeks have elapsed since conception.








  • The 120k went into the label, he pumped another million into her directly just for the first album.

    btw I tried to find a trustfull source for the claim that it was only 120k. There are different numbers thrown around, while the 120k is the lowest. The source of that number is Wikipedia and the 2 linked “resources” for that don’t mention it. One of the 2 resources is even an article that is not about Tailor Swift but rather one about some Tobey Keith instead.

    I don’t think it was disclosed. I couldn’t find any proof about the amount.

    She was 14 when “signing” the record label contract.

    This is basically the moment where they used that load of money.And everyone who is thinking that she is a self-made anything is blind by choice.

    Parents throwing Kids at that age into international careers make me at least sceptical about their motivation. That it seems to have worked out this time, doesn’t change that at all.
