Dupes men with no exception -- female being superior (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fall guys

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

'dupes' is the definition.

'men with no exception female being superior' is the wordplay.
'men' becomes 'guys'.
'with no exception female' becomes 'fall' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'being superior' means one lot of letters go next to another (in a down clue, some letters go above others).
'guys' after 'fall' is 'FALL-GUYS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for fall guys that I've seen is " Innocent victims".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
