Btw, your still not holding it correctly, you need to put it on a flat surface like a table, then point the tail directly up 90 degrees to the body, not 60, only then will the hemipenal bulges be noticeable.

Anyway, the tail shape and pores already tell me its male
 
I dont see any hemipenal bulges.... but as said before, you arent holding it quite right just yet. :) It looks like a male but for the fact we see no hemipenes... so no one could say for sure. But aside from his bits between his legs, in your first photos his head shape looked a bit masculine too. But, unless we get a good tail angle we cant tell you for sure :)

Place him on a flat table when he isnt in a completely hyper mood. If they are trying to get away you will never get a good photo. :)
If he is relaxed, he shouldnt have anything against you lifting his tail towards his head. You wont have to hold him down.. but make sure his legs dont lift off the table. Dont force the tail either. :)
You will want to make sure it is a boy before buying it a mate. If you put two males together, it could end pretty badly. Dont worry about others criticism ^_^ If you would like us to confirm for you, just try to get some good stable pics and post back on this thread again :) Some of us are happy to help.
 
its difficult to get the pix trust me lol but u can buy a $2 tripod from a cheap shop to keep the camera stable for better quality macro shot and pre position the camera set timer whatever i find it wasier to hold my beardie on a table as mentioned and use my 2nd hand to lift the table as my beardies will usually chill or run lol useing my 2 hands on th elizzard make it alot easier and safer for the beardie
