I don't have SPSS on this machine, so the following is untested.

If you use only records with SEX=2, then you want "BY locacion", not "BY sex*locacion". So something like this should do it:

TEMPORARY.
SELECT if sex EQ 2.
EXAMINE VARIABLES=TALLA PESO IMC sistolica diastolica imcpercent BY locacion
/PLOT BOXPLOT
/COMPARE GROUPS
/STATISTICS DESCRIPTIVES
/CINTERVAL 95
/MISSING LISTWISE
/NOTOTAL.

HTH.
