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.

Football has always had a political side. Those fans showed their political colors I guess

I have a lot of German friends, and it seems really regional but a lot of the country is extremely transphobic.

Can confirm that it’s mostly regional. Having spent 15 years in northern Germany, all I ever heard on the topic was something like ‘just let people do what they want’.

Although, and this might be relevant, none of the people I’ve been in contact with are religious or anything of the sort.
