BMI is a simplistic, one-size-fits-all (literally) standard that doesn't make any allowances for build, age or even gender. Let's put it this way: according to BMI, Colts Pro Bowl running back Joseph Addai is obese. It also says that 129 pounds falls in the "normal" weight range for my height (5-10). I know that's bunk because I actually weighed about that much in high school, and was perpetually mocked because I was so scrawny. I don't doubt that women encounter more discrimination in this area than men do...

Women probably get judged more based on appearance in every way, not just body weight. At least the weight is something they can do something about (as can men, of course), and improve their health at the same time.
