Weirdly, I curtsey for bouncer? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

security

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

'bouncer?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.

'weirdly i curtsey' is the wordplay.
'weirdly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'i'+'curtsey'='icurtsey'
'icurtsey' anagrammed gives 'SECURITY'.

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for security that I've seen before include "peace of mind" , "Refuge" , "Something given to guarantee payment" , "Protection from damage" , "Safety, protection" .)
