I am decent - or the opposite (8)
I believe the answer is:
immodest
'or the opposite' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'i am decent' is the wordplay.
'i am' becomes 'I'm' (contraction).
'decent' becomes 'modest' (similar in meaning).
'im'+'modest'='IMMODEST'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for immodest that I've seen before include "Not humble or decorous" , "Cheeky" , "Offending against sexual mores in appearance" , "Boastful, given to showing off" , "Bigheaded" .)
