Not sure about the DDR but I know the Soviets had a slightly higher level of COED sports and whatnot. Also I think the Soviet scouts equivalent was also COED, if that bled into the DDR it's possible that wouldve had knock on effects up to now.

Also I'm using DDR because GDR sounds weird to me and I grew up around folks who used the German name for some fucken reason.
