Hate to be a man, I suspect (9)
I believe the answer is:
abominate
'hate' is the definition.
(abominating is a kind of hating)
'to be a man i suspect' is the wordplay.
'suspect' indicates anagramming the letters.
'to'+'be'+'a'+'man'+'i'='tobeamani'
'tobeamani' anagrammed gives 'ABOMINATE'.
(Other definitions for abominate that I've seen before include "Be revolted by" , "Condemn" , "Loathe, find hateful" , "Hate" , "Regard with disgust" .)
