Young female star backed accepting woman's title (6)
I believe the answer is:
damsel
'young female' is the definition.
'damsel' can be an answer for 'female' (damsel is a kind of female). I am not certain of the 'young' bit.
'star backed accepting woman's title' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'title' could be 'ms' (title used by some women) and 'ms' is located in the answer.
'woman' could be 'dael' and 'dael' is present in the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for damsel that I've seen before include "distressed girl?" , "Maiden (poetic)" , "Young woman (often in distress)" , "(Poetically) a young unmarried woman" , "Someone in distress?" .)
