A he-man's woman? (5)

I believe the answer is:

helen

'woman?' is the definition.

'a he-man's' is the wordplay.
'man' becomes 'len' (short for Leonard).
'he'+'len'='HELEN'

(Other definitions for helen that I've seen before include "Trojan war beauty" , "-- Mirren, English actress" , "Her face launched a thousand ships" , "Greek woman famed for beauty" , ""The face the launched 1,000 ships"" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
