Demanding one gets hosted by guy who's had a sex change? (7)
I believe the answer is:
exigent
'demanding' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'one gets hosted by guy who's had a sex change?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'one' could be 'i' (Roman numeral) and 'i' is found within the answer.
'by' could be 'x' (as in 'multiplied by') and 'x' is located in the answer.
'guy' could be 'gent' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'gent' is present in the answer.
A single letter 'e' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exigent that I've seen before include "Urgent and exacting" , "Pressing; demanding" , "Exacting, requiring much" , "Demanding immediate attention" , "Urgent and taxing" .)
