All physical education should be separated by sex.
I agree. It would smooth a lot of issues over.

The UN Declaration of Human Rights also says healthcare, housing, and employment are rights, which they are not. While I agree with Article 18, I would rather argue the American (or in this case German) constitution's guarantee of religious freedom then the UN Declaration, which I don't view as legitimate.

Anywho, I think this argument depends on the school. If it is a private school in question, then the students have the right to withdraw from the school or comply. If it is a public school, which it is, then I don't think the state should roll over religious freedom for the sake of P.E.
