To be honest I don't trust my own judgement with sexing gouramis. I was hoping that the general behavior was enough to determine what it may be.

Its probable they are both they are the same sex then, its very common for pearl gouramis to 'fight' eachother no matter what sex they are. Unless you want me to sex the gouramis for you?

Is it possible you could provide pics of a male and female pearl that demonstrate the differences? Perhaps that will clarify things better for me and trash me at the same time.

Sorry but I don't have any photos
The main difference is that males have a much longer dorsal fin and anal fin than females. Also the dorsal and anal fins tends to have long spiky tips whereas famales have a rounded tips.
