Can anyone tell me what gender my beardy is? I know that you can tell by looking under their tail for the lumps but I just need someone to confirm it for me.

I think you mean sex.
Gender is whatever they choose you shitlord.

let me guess, you named her "Lifts her tail"?
Firstly, that picture is atrocious. I'd go for male, but that picture is downright blurry.
Here's the guidance we were given on sexing.

What are femoral pores and why do only males have them?

Good question! You've made me dig up the answer, our reptiles lectures seem so long ago!
They are there to allow for secretions of pheramones for the attraction of mates/to mark its territory. (For example geckos will taste the secretions by flicking their tongue- and if two males meet, they tend to fight. Or, iguanas have a cool feature where the secretions absorb UV light- making them visible to species able to see the UV spectrum.)
As for why males have them- evolution, there are quite a few species of reptiles that have them - and the sexes vary wildly, for example with iguanas both sexes have them.
