Hi, guys. Could someone help me out figure my tortoise's gender? I got it as a gift so I do not know the exact age, but judging by how tiny it was when I got it, it's ~5 years old now. Thanks in advance!

I agree with Tom that your tortoise appears to be female. I have an almost 3 year old male Hermann’s tortoise who is similar in size to yours, and his tail is a lot wider and longer than what I see in your pictures. She’s cute!

Yes, Most likely a female. If your tort is 5ish, I think you would have seen his "Member" showing when he gets a soak if it was a male.
