I think the 60% female figure is the most important. Usually I would suggest about 8oz of cooked meat per person, but I think you have some room to wiggle assuming side items.

I would suggest 60 chicken thighs, or 30-40 chicken leg quarters. WalMart has them for ~$6 a bag for I think 12 pieces per bag.

While you're there, pick up 40# of packer brisket. That should give you 25# of meat.

Lastly, about 40# of butts for maybe 25-28# of pulled meat should give everyone a chance to eat some of each and nobody will leave hungry. Most likely, you'll have leftovers.

Cut back 20% if you know the group to be light eaters. You didn't mention what you're cooking on, but you could do all of this on an 008 pretty easily, plus a grill for the chicken. Have fun.
