Looking at your requirements I’d say this is probably doable, but with quite a bit of customisation. BuddyPress supports member types, so you could set up two member types and make content decisions based on those members types (for example only display a member list for the male member type).
You would however need to do quite a bit of customisation regarding the registration process. These’s a plugin called BP Better Registration that splits the registration process into several parts. This could be a basis of your registration process as you could make decisions based on the selected member types between page loads. So for example at initial registration you can ask for username password and member type, then the next page can ask for registration detaills based on the selected member type. That would all need to be coded.
