s = succeeded
be = exist
Why only women ?
Nice one, K. It's always the chaps "wot gets the blaime".
Most dictionaries agree that the term 'sexist' applies mainly against women. I also missed the cryptic connection.
Rather a feeble clue imho, typical of many that appear in The Telegraph cryptic these days. To expect us to know that the compiler thinks that S = succeeded is stretching things to say the least.
