They do look very much like Red Admirals, don't worry I wrongly identified them at first.
No idea how you tell the males from females, some butterflies do have distinct differences between the sexes, Orange Tips for example only the male has the orange tip on it's wing, the females look very similar to small whites or green veined whites when they have the wings open, however the undersides of the their wings are completely different.
