There's actually 3 genders in German grammar.

One issue here is that "Geschlechter" was translated as "genders" in the headline, while the word can also be translated as "sexes", which does make a big difference. I'm not sure though what relevance the existence of two biological sexes has for those fans.

But even hardcore gender social constructivists don't argue for more than 2 sexes? Or have I misread the literature?

There are quite a few people who argue for sex as a spectrum. Which doesn't make biological sense and is neither helpful for intersex people nor for transgender people.
