Also (according to report) Times not open about women in couples (3,2,3)
I believe the answer is:
two by two
'couples' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'also according to report times not open about women' is the wordplay.
'also' becomes 'too' (synonyms).
'according to report' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'times' becomes 'by' (both can mean 'multiplied by').
'not open about women' becomes 'two' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'too' sounds like 'two'.
'two'+'by'+'two'='TWO BY TWO'
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for two by two that I've seen before include "How the crocodile walks" , "Arithmetic progress of animals into Noah's Ark" , "In pairs" , "Animals entered Noah's Ark in this order" .)
