Females flashing

[Turt Newinsky]

I have heard of both males and females flashing. I was wondering if anyone has experienced their tort flash..and then later on find out it was a female. I see many photos of males flashing but haven’t seen one of a proven female flash. I have heard when a female flashes, the sex organ isn’t nearly as large as a males. I’d be interested in seeing a photo of a female flashing and/or a comparison of both a male and female flashing side by side. Anyone have any experience with this?

Female photo in the OP:

Dude looks like a lady (actually the opposite)

I thought this would be of interest to many, and a surprise to most, though I know some of you have seen this before. We often tell people they don'y know the sex of a tortoise for sure until it lays eggs or flashes you. The attached picture shows what many would consider 100% proof that this...
