CharInChastity Oh. Sorry.
sexual education
Mr-TM Why does your sister speak German and you don't?
She learned it at school, I didn’t 
Angelina that does not mean this is the place to talk about that

Too bad. Then I'll just have to write German with your sister. May I ask where German is taught in school?
Mr-TM lots of places I think
Honestly? I am amazed. German used to be a world language, but not since the Second World War. But I have understood.
Back to the topic.
I've asked this question before in a forum where teenagers and young adults were discussing sexual stuff. The thread went through the roof! Here, unfortunately, not yet but I note that all who have answered here are better informed than at that time in the other forum, which amazes me a bit.

I do not catch your point.
What surprised me is that all those who have answered here are clearly better informed about sex and what belongs to it, as then on a forum on sexual topics.

In Australia they teach German at schools.
Per Google German is the 4th most popular language taught in American schools, right after American sign language.
Joh
When I did my master in Australia, one of my exam was right next door to a German exam. The professor was trying to usher in her students and, not knowing I was waiting for the other room to open, was quite surprised when I responded to her ushering attempt (which was in German, although you could tell from her pronunciation she was not a native speaker) in the most perfect, accent free German. 
So yes, there is actually a not so small German community in Down Under - especially around Adelaide.
The reason few know is, that Germans living in Australia are usually well integrated and fluent in English, so they do not rely on that community. for support.
Kaja German was the scientific language for quite a long time, it's never been a "world language" like French or English or Spanish because Germany never really had an overseas empire. the war has nothing to do with it.
hanna_anders Victory of USA at WW2 has connection with replacement of French for English. It was because US started to be top leader around the word.
You have true that chemistry and physics was around 1900 mainly Getman thing.
youdontknowme that does not mean this is the place to talk about that
well, maybe you know the saying "it's OK to talk to the white elephant that's standing in the room" that is what going to my head when i read this

I think that's right, at least that's what I learned at school.
PS: can anyone tell me what this has to do with sexual education?

You are fully coming right about the science language. As far as I know, there was a vote after the War of Independence in the USA whether English or German should be the official language and it turned out very narrowly for English.
But now very quickly back to topic, before Angelina gets angry
