Why did The Soviet Union use female troops in WW2, and not for example Germany?

I read somewhere that it was because of the soviet communistic ideology that preached equality between the sexes. However, just asking here, did the soviets really practise equality between the sexes to a big extent before the war?

The Nazis in Germany have a very traditional view on women, believing that women are to serve their counterparts and produce offspring for the regime.
