I have 4 platies and 2 of them are younger blue Mickey Mouse platies. I know one of them for sure is a female however the other I'm having a little trouble sexing. It's fin is not as triangular as the female, however it's not as pointed as my other male Platy. They are still smaller and younger than my other two platies.

I did take a picture, sorry for the blurriness. ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1403929569.122821.jpg
The fin isn't always as pointed as that, when s/he's not swimming fast it fans out more
Thanks!
 
I'll try to get better pictures, but they don't like to sit still! Lol

Yes male Platties do . Looks like a full anal fin though and a pretty big belly
