Nothing on that plant looks male. It's surprising how many people grow a plant and can't identify the basic anatomy of that plant. A simple two word google search "cannabis anatomy' yields hundreds of illustrations that anyone could look at and use to determine that is a female plant. I see absolutely nothing that would leave one with any doubt that the plant is female.

Im pretty sure I had a male look exactly like this, I thought it was a female and he seeded my crop..
Pretty sure you didn't. You could have had a hermaphrodite that developed male flowers but there is absolutely nothing resembling a male on that plant.

When in doubt separate him/her from your others. If you dont have another grow room or tent use a window seal works out good. At least until you can tell yourself that its a male or female. Looks like a hermie to me. I think I see pistils and sacks. But then again im half blind and the pic is small on my phone. Definately see sacks though.

You obviously don't know enough about cannabis anatomy to make an accurate identification.

It's possible that plant will exhibit hermaphroditic traits and display male inflorescences at some point in it's life. It hasn't done that at this point. What you think are male balls are actually bract/calyx with stigma protruding from them. All parts of a normal female cannabis plant starting to flower.

Isnt this thread for learning purposes? That is why im on here and i find it extremely difficult to learn from someone whom wants to degrade anyone simply searching for advice. My apologies for not knowing the anatomy of a cannabis plant thoroughly yet but simply made my own observations as to what i saw were sacks on a very small photo for some reason. Lol
