The woman, a lefty that's somehow sheep-like? (7)
I believe the answer is:
sheared
'somehow sheep-like?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'the woman a lefty' is the wordplay.
'the woman' becomes 'shea' ().
'a lefty' becomes 'red' (red can mean a left-wing person).
'shea'+'red'='SHEARED'
'that's' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sheared that I've seen before include "Broke" , "Removed fleece" , "As sheep perhaps" , "Adheres (anag.)" , "Clipped" .)
