To find out if a rabbit is male or female, you have to turn it upside down; however, it can be dangerous to hold a rabbit like this because it can struggle and seriously injure itself (and maybe scrape you up a bit, too). Whenever you have to handle a rabbit like this (beyond simple petting), have someone with you who can help keep the rabbit secure, and be very careful! If your rabbit is really finicky and always struggles badly when you handle her, you should only let the vet do this. See the related question for details.

Note: Lots of people talk about hypnotizing their rabbit by turning it on its back. It's true that some rabbits do this, but some rabbits don't, and some rabbits do at first but then snap out of it -- this can be very dangerous! Don't assume you rabbit will relax if you turn it on its back.
