Honestly it's pretty tricky to see from such a distance, but from what I can see, I'm leaning male.

Not close enough for me, I lean female, again I'm a molt confirmation person it's the only 100% fool proof method, except for some species that have distinguishing characteristics- like Pokis, and versi for an example.

I wouldn't venture a guess as to a GBB's sex from ventral images; I'm just acting in my capacity of picture linking bot.

Neither would I.

I'm not completely guessing. I do own an AF GBB sitting right next to me, and I was measured in my reply. I confirmed mine via molt.
