Vent Pics....Is it Male or Female

[Man-made Monsters]

So my best educated guess is that this is a female. But as my wife likes to point out, I don't ALWAYS have the right answers.... lol.... Anyway, if you know what you are doing when it comes to properly identifying gender on cichlids please feel free to view the pics below and share your thoughts... Thanks

Pointed very tailwards. Usually that says male to me. The large and prominent poo is also throwing me off. Lol

I can't be certain by that photo, but I am leaning more towards male now. Females tend to be wider/broader vents, where a males is pointy. It looks like you squeezed too hard. lol

So far 3 of my fellow hobby members are saying male. I thank you all for your input. Anyone else? Please only comment if you are experienced with this area of fish keeping. Sorry for the feces in the photo, this fish started pooping as I was trying to net it. Hey, when ya gotta go, ya gotta go. I really wasn't squeezing at all. Regardless, I am appreciating everyones feed back.
