So, let's have body fat percentiles that aren't based on healthy levels of male body fat, but healthy levels of body fat for each sex. Women naturally have a higher % of body fat, so they should have more leeway.
Or, perhaps, have an average between the two sexes (i.e. body fat percentage is higher), where slightly overweight men can also join the Marines.

I think this sums up perfectly the opinion of many posters in this thread:
"I'm not sexist, I believe in equality; now let's use some sexist slurs to get my point across."
