3in. B. emilia sling, M or F?

Hard to tell with this one, so I'm consulting the community.
I want to say female, but I am a bit uncertain. Males of this species usually display their epiandrous fusillae at smaller sizes - around the 3" mark. You will have a much better idea next moult.

I will continue to monitor. I suspect female as well, but this is one of the few species that if I get a male, I won't feel bad about it because I know the males are less common, and can send him out to father some babies.
