If you want to know more about this, here's a German article from a more reputable source:

TL;DR: There's currently a new law proposed to significantly reduce the time, cost and effort to change your name and gender, replacing the unconstitutional one from the 70s. Guess who doesn't like this and believes cis women need to be protected from dangerous trans women, therefore manufacturing scandals to influence public opinion.
