Misrepresent female intuition (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

belief

'intuition' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'misrepresent female' is the wordplay.
'misrepresent' becomes 'belie' ('belie' can be a synonym of 'misrepresent').
'female' becomes 'f' (abbreviation).
'belie'+'f'='BELIEF'

(Other definitions for belief that I've seen before include "Faith, doctrine" , "Trust, faith (6)" , "Faith; confidence" , "Credo" , "Persuasion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
