Spermathecae sexing is done from the interior of the molt. Epinandrous fusillae sexing is done on the t's underside without the use of a molt (like your pic).

Looks male to me...but that isn't saying much as I am not very good at sexing

Male is my vote as well. That patch of fusillae above the furrow should darken with the next molt.
