Bart:
There's no such thing as a female werewolf. Unless, of course, some sort of gender-alteration takes place somewhere along the way. A female vulpine lycanthrope would be a wifwolf. And a man who turns into a female would be a werewoman. 

Now, of course, this all assumes that JKR knows something about mystical etymology, which is only a slightly better bet than assuming that she knows how to count (hmmmmm.... if enough of us convince her that she has only written 6 books in the series, do you think she might be tricked into writing an 8th?).
