Female embracing me for want of butch types? (2-3)
I believe the answer is:
he-men
'want of butch types?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'female embracing me' is the wordplay.
'female' becomes 'hen' (hen is a kind of female).
'embracing' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'hen' enclosing 'me' is 'HE-MEN'.
'for' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for he-men that I've seen before include "Virile chaps" , "Strong fellows" .)
