That's a pretty Irian Jaya. It is hard to guess gender when the body is curled like that. If you could get a picture with tthe body and tail in a straight line, it might be possible to make a good guess.

I say definitely IJ too, and I can't tell the sex. Maybe male because of the skinny long tale. But it's hard to tell :)

Yes, they have more variation in tail length than any other form of bts, accounting for 65% to 85% of the SVL (Snout to Vent Length).
