Avicularia avicularia [ventral sexing]

Got a better picture. A. Avicularia roughly 3.5 inches. Has not yet molted in my care. Sus female. I would love some opinions as I’m not very good at vent sexing.
I think I’ll have to wait for a molt and see for sure before I get my hopes up. I posted a picture of the same spider yesterday and 4 people said female so idk lol
 
@Swagg Well vent sexing (especially from a picture) can be tough. And i won’t glaim to be any expert, but when it molts again, it should be easy for tyou to molt sex.
 
I think it looks male based on the spacing and angle of the book lungs. I also think that I might see the beginning of epiandrous fusillae, but then again the photo is a little blurry so I could be mistaken.

I concur with this, looks identical to my male. females of this species usually have a nice curve from the top book lungs
