I don’t think that the baseline we should expect if all was fair and there was perfect equality of opportunity is 50% female. Bear in mind that far more veg*ns are female than male (without looking into the best studies on this, a quick Google suggests 80% female in the US). I’d guess that “animal advocates” has a similar gender balance. So this would suggest that women are still slightly underrepresented in paid roles, or at least that they’re not overrepresented.
Also note that women are slightly underrepresented in management and leadership roles in my findings compared to the number of employees (although not by as much as I would have guessed)
