'member's area?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both body parts as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'time wasted' is the wordplay.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'wasted' becomes 'high' (wasted can mean high on drugs).
't'+'high'='THIGH'

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for thigh that I've seen before include "Leg between knee and hip" , "This bone is the femur" , "Upper joint of the leg" , "Joint of meat" , "top of pin" .)
