As a European, I find it strange and amusing that Americans are so afraid of sex.
Here (in Italy, in Spain, in Netherlands, in Sweden) sex is good, normal and nothing of much interest, just a regular part of life.

EDIT: downvoting me for saying that porn is different than sex is like downvoting me if i'd said Hollywood movies are different than reality...

If anything pornography is a whitewash of the rich tapestry of sex to make it into something bland, banal, and utterly mechanical wherein you can slot the entire act into single categories and stick them on a website.
For Germany you can Google it yourself.
Essentially the same is true in the USA or anywhere in the world, any minor who has unrestricted access to the internet can see pornography.
That said, I've heard some rather sad or misleading material come from programmes in essentially every corner of the states. It seems like the sort of thing a publisher could remedy by providing an excellent and scientifically-supported course free of moralization to one or another side of the debates.
I grew up in Canada, and had an okay sex ed class. I hear from teachers that things have gotten worse over the last few years, likely owing to to socjus pressure on schools. They are now completely misleading about consent; and seem to easily convince boys that they are not worthy of saying no; and girls that they can lead people along endlessly.
