It looks female to me. You might need one more moult unless you have a macro lens or something that can zoom in clearly. I found this genus to not be that obvious until they were a bit larger. This is a photo of my 2.5" LD and the spermathecae is not that easy to see... http://arachnoboards.com/gallery/lasiodora-difficilis-2-5.39422/
@VanessaS I guess I'll have to invest in a new macro lens. To the naked eye and with my phone camera zoomed as much as possible, there appeared to be something where the spermathecae would be, however I was unable to flip it around, even with the fine point of a knife. And under a microscope, it doesn't resemble any spermathecae I've seen before, although it also doesn't look particularly male
