Is she Rosy, or has he been Frodo all along?

My jury is still out on Rosy being a girl, due to her being so slim, and very slight bulging at the base of the tail.
I know these things can get old, but I think I'd like to hear some of your guesses.
I probably shouldn't have taken these during the bright mid-day sun...

The rest is to show tail-base:

I've noticed that some fatty tissues build up or start after the cloaca/vent slit. Virginia has it, and she is proven female.. I lean on female on here, though. :)

I guess female based on the tail base-but that's purely a guess
