It depends on the kind of fish. For some, there are differences in size or color between the males and females. With others, there really is no way to tell. Look up your fish in the encyclopedia to see if there is a difference. Good luck.

That would depend on the type of fish you have. Some are very easy to tell apart, others may be next to impossible unless you see the female laying eggs. Here are links to some websites that will tell you how to figure this out:
goldfish: http://www.bristol-aquarists.org.uk/goldfish/info/sexing-fs.htm
bettas: http://www.flippersandfins.net/faq.htm#malefemale
other species - look for the names along the lower right side of the page - click on the name, then look at the bottom of the page where it says "gender": http://www.fishlore.com/

Depends on the species - if they are dimorphic (look different) then the males will generally be more colorful and/or have larger fins. There are exceptions, of course. If they are monomorphic, sometimes venting works (looking at genital opening), but that takes experience. And many fish can't be sexed as juveniles even if they can be as adults. Behavior can give good clues once they become sexually mature (egg-laying, etc).
What are you trying to sex?
