Sexing with this picture would be impossible. It might be possible to sex the molt with a good microscope focused on the right area inside the molt, but I'm thinking the molt might still be too small to tell

@PidderPeets i was not trying to get you to sex it via this pic.
i uploaded that pic before testing out my new pocket microscope to see if i can sex it although it is so tiny.

@Jessi330 i was able to have an awesome look at the book lungs but it was far too hard to spot anything else.

need to wait for one of my bigger T's to molt to start sexing.

I've been able to sex moults at <1" with my cheap Amazon microscope/endoscope... I've done three so far, my Euathlus condorito, my Lasiodora parahybana and my Brachypelma auratum.
It's possible, but the trick is that they have to be perfect when you pull them. The minute you wet them down, it becomes impossible to see.
