Meanings of elements
SHITTY END OF THE STICK, DREGS, SCUM, RESIDUAL RESIDUE with ROD STALK, INDICATES EXTENT, ONE SEGMENT with PERSON WITH NO-LONGER-INTEGRATED FEET COLLECTING FLUIDS FOR A BRIEF TIME, SEXUAL SERVICES PROVIDER

…or: NIGHT SOIL and ALMOST THE SAME BUT WITH SOME DIFFERENCES
「Night soil comparison」in dynastic China likely referred to bonding with a pair, rather than pair-bonding (匕 so popular in dynastic China). There is a significant difference between social pairing or mating, and sexual pairing and mating:「Note that social monogamy doesn't infer any 'sexual interactions or reproductive patterns.' It's just about spending time together. Sexual monogamy, on the other hand, is about 'an exclusive sexual relationship.' Big difference, right? As far apart as China and Chinatown.」

「All expressions of true monogamy--whether characterized by short-term or long-term pairings--have long been considered to be a rarity in the animal kingdom. Nevertheless, since the advent, in the 1990s, of DNA fingerprinting--which is similar to paternity tests used in the courts--scientists have discovered that true monogamy is even rarer than previously believed. As it turns out, many species that were once considered to be truly [sexually] monogamous really practice what is known as social monogamy. This form of monogamy is defined as pair bonding between a male and female, which mate with one another, raise offspring together and spend time together, but may nevertheless occasionally mate outside of their pair bond.」

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system! Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
