Very attractive male ready to dance (6)

I believe the answer is:

dreamy

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'very attractive' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'male ready to dance' is the wordplay.
'male' becomes 'm' (common abbreviation).
'to dance' indicates an anagram (letters must dance around).
'm'+'ready'='mready'
'mready' is an anagram of 'DREAMY'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dreamy that I've seen before include "Misty" , "Vague - pensive" , "Pleasantly unreal, very attractive (colloq.)" , "With a pleasantly unreal quality" , "Unreal -- gorgeous" .)
