thrixopelma pruriens molt sex

thrixopelma pruriens. maybe 2 inches at best. I know the male organs on these are very prominent and visible from a small size,I definitely see something that could be either. The fact that they aren’t transparent makes me think male since it’s kinda small
Looking at yours @NMTs I’m really not sure what this one is, seems like the organs on these are prominent on both genders
 
I think yours has male accessory organs. The key difference is that spermathecae in females will be protruding from the end/top of a flap (uterus externus) with nothing of note in between them, and in males you can almost never distinguish a flap and can usually see a small slit between the accessory organs.
 
I think you are right. If I can manipulate the 2 dots does that make a difference? Like would the male organs be movable? I can manipulate the dots much like I can on a female molt. Like they flip over with a needle if that makes since
Maybe - they look a little more like spermathecae in the pic that is zoomed in more. I think if they continue to grow and you can see a flap growing them is female, but if they stay pretty proportionally small no flap shows up it's a male.
