The wolf in Red Riding Hood

 Something just occured to me.  Bear with me...you must know that my mind goes off on tangents for no reason by now.

Anyway, I was playing Odd Socks, and all I needed to complete the Red Riding Hood set was the wolf, and this daft question popped into my head.

"Is it a cross-dressing wolf, or something similar?", because he...the wolf is always referred to as a he, never she, in any tales that have wolves as the "baddie". 

I don't need an answer, it just made me chuckle to think that the wolf might have been really unsettled having to dress up as a woman in order to fool, and hopefully eat Red Riding Hood. 

If my weird reflections make you smile, or chuckle, you're welcome.
