Sexing blackthroat monitors

Im just wondering how you sex a blackthroat monitor. I recently exchanged my mangrove for one because my mangrove would NOT stop crashing into the sides of my tank and the branches in it.

i look at tailbase, which would be wider and have bulges ono the underside, also i look at head and neck shape, males have big heads and thicker necks, as females can have that pencil neck look to them compared to males. Other than that just wait to see an eversion.
