Indian ornamental sexing

Hello, I'm struggling sexing this baby. I see thr typical male bump, but I also see flaps. These flaps are see through so I'm unsure if they are just a tear or not? Thanks
Pic is too blurry to be sure, but it looks like it could be female. If you can zoom in and focus better on the little reddish area between the forward book lungs it would help.

I do apologize as my phone sucks and so does my camera skills. This is also my first larger molt (spiders body is about 2 inches not Including legs).
Hopefully this one is better.
id also like to note as i was resoaking the molt that that the flap was infact not ripped threw but it had a very clear/ thin cover thing. Thanks!

A better link sorry !
 
That's a much better pic. Looks female to me - that reddish-orange piece that's shaped kind of like a tongue is the spermathecae, and it should darken as the T matures.
