Can anyone tell me about this cockatiel's gender?

I'd guess female but 1) Does the bird like to hang with females or males more. Also 2) BirdIQ.com it's like 8 bucks to get a DNA test at least last time I did it.
 
If your bird is very close to or over 1 year she is female.
She looks to be of a pearl mutation and the pearl coloring goes away with male cockatiels after first molt.
