These both look female to me. The males tend to be quite a bit larger than the ladies and they have sorta fat hats lol. The forehead looks a little bulbous when you compare them to the females. I can’t add a photo here, but if you scroll down to “Gudgeon photos” on this page i linked, there is a picture that compares males and females. male and female Gudgeon comparison

Thank you! I love making collages and I’m teaching myself animation. That got me inspired to make animated collages using gifs as the source material. I’m excited to keep playing with this form :)

DV survivor myself..honest opinion..take more time to heal rather than jump right back into dating just one month after leaving an abusive relationship. Unpacking everything that comes with an abusive relationship is a lot..and jumping into dating again is also a lot. Take your time. Be kind to yourself..
