Hi,
 
Please help me to identify the gender of my Molly bought last week, I'm new into hobby, LPS did not know if it was male or female! Thanks

female. you can always google it and compare pictures.

Yes, definitely a female.
 
For future reference, look at the fish's anal fin; that's the one on it's tummy, right in front of its tail. female livebearers have a normal, fan shaped fin, while males have a rod like structure called a gonopodium that they use for mating.

Yep she's a female Awww she looks like mine

Google 'gonopodium'.  That's the key for determining gender with livebearers.  If there's a gonopodium, it's a male.  If not, female.

This one is clearly female.  No gonopodium. Regular anal fin.

As stated above the male has a gonopodium and the females have anal fins.
