tangles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'starts arguing with' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'bronzed legs crossed' is the wordplay.
'bronzed' becomes 'tan' (I've seen this in another clue).
'crossed' is an anagram indicator.
'legs' with letters rearranged gives 'gles'.
'tan'+'gles'='TANGLES'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tangles that I've seen before include "Knots" , "Sent gal (anag.)" .)
