Sorry for the picture quality... I bought this Versi second hand from a seller that never sexed its molts. Supposedly the T was born in September of 2015, which would be a really old (likely dying) male. Many thanks for your inputs!
With an underside view of the pedipalps like we have here, we'd be able to tell if the spider was a mature male with certainty. The scopular pad on each tarsus becomes modified as the palpal bulb complete with tegulum and emoblus takes its place. No such structure is visible here, and the scopulae of the palp tarsi are clearly intact.
The epigastric furrow on your spider is looking very female-like as well. I agree with consensus.
