Can anyone tell me if this is a male or perfect vine? I know I see male parts for sure, but wondering about the little flower looking bit… is that the female part? It’s not what I’ve seen online references look like, but I’d be pleased if it were a perfect vine. Ideas or ID’s, anyone?

I only see filaments on those flowers. No styles. Therefore, male only.

Yes, of course, and I accept that blame. In fact, i covet that blame. As does this tiny ad:
