Topless cuddle with someone in bed that is less good-looking (6)
I believe the answer is:
uglier
'is less good-looking' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'topless cuddle with someone in bed' is the wordplay.
'topless' means to remove the first letter.
'cuddle' becomes 'hug' (I've seen this before).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'someone in bed' becomes 'lier' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'hug' with its initial letter taken away is 'ug'.
'ug'+'lier'='UGLIER'
'that' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for uglier that I've seen before include "more revolting" , "More displeasing to the senses" , "Less beautiful" , "More unpleasant to look at" , "More lacking in beauty" .)
