The citation is actually from a Feinberg article that goes in to way more detail. That passage is kinda taken out of the greater context of how the laws were applied and used (mainly as a tool for arresting Nazis and Pedophiles, who in the 30s were both kinda socially intertwined with homosexuality).
Not to say that it wasn't bad, but it was a very complex issue that shows that they were terrible at seeing just what sexuality was and should never had disbanded the council of sexologists that wanted to legalize homosexuality on the basis of transgender women not being able to become "fully/biologically women" at the time and therefore needing protections for homosexual marriage.
