Thank you for the reply guys,
I want to note that I do not want to remove women from the game. I am merely suggesting that the frequency of them appearing in future units should decrease by few percentage points. If the developers have other ideas, they can implement them as well. (Male skin/voice versions for currency)
Even if this is not real life, but a fictional title, in Command and Conquer there were never so many female characters. It was overwhelmingly man fighting other man in huge battles. Why was this decided to be changed so much if it was fine?
Overall this is not big concern, It is something that I would like the developers to notice and hopefully could be considered going forwards. Some of us would really appreciate it.

Regarding our real world:
Historically men fought in battles/ wars because of physical fitness/ strength, among other things. To yield a sword was tough, I've held a long sword, it's very heavy I cannot even imagine how you would fight with it.
Forward to our last global war, the Second World War, still only men fought (Russia did have female pilots, tankers and snipers though). Tanks were mechanical requiring you to physically push levers, or repair a broken down tank in the field. And infantry kits were heavy to carry around and guns were not light either. So still very much a war of physical fitness and strength. Women were working in factories so already contributing to the war effort.
Today the gap between men and women in war situations has already become smaller. Think of drones and bombers, all using computer systems.
In the fictional Tiberium universe, tech has advanced way passed what we have today, we can assume most weapons and equipment/ vehicles to be computerized. And some combat gear to be nano suits or in some way assist the wearer when it comes to stamina and strength. And it is a all out global war, way worse than any of our real world wars were. So it is not hard to see how men and woman could be fighting in equal roles here.
Maybe this will be our reality some day too. If you look at how things are going today, it's not hard to see that. Look at some Asian militaries, they already have women in their armies today.
Maybe this helps with immersion.
