Tad confused about excluding women in accommodation (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adjustment

'accommodation' is the definition.
(I know that accommodation can be written as adjustment)

'tad confused about excluding women' is the wordplay.
'confused' indicates an anagram.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'excluding women' becomes 'just men' (only men).
'tad' is an anagram of 'adt'.
'adt' going around 'justmen' is 'ADJUSTMENT'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for adjustment that I've seen before include "Minor modification" , "Adaptation" , "Modification; regulation" , "Fitting" , "Small change to achieve a desired result" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
