Meanings of elements
BITCH with ARRAYED RAISED LEG
…or: STRAIGHT UP STIFF, QUICK MOVEMENT IN ANY DIRECTION STRETCHED TAUT with BLAME
…or: BUTTOCKS, GENITALS, CORPSE, EXCREMENT SQUATTING with COMPARISON, TO RATE, BE NEAR OR CLOSE TO, ALMOST THE SAME BUT WITH SOME DIFFERENCES, A PEER, CONTEST OR COMPETITION TO DECIDE THE TOP
…or: EXCREMENT SQUATTING BUTTOCKS with HAND GESTURES, MOTIONS WITH HANDS STROKING
How many people raise a leg or lean to one side while releasing FLATULENT GASES? who hasn't participated in a farting contest with one's peers? a FART is essentially「almost the same」as excrement, but with an important difference being principally those same brown molecules in a gaseous state rather than as a solid or liquid state. A buttocks odor that is almost the same as no-longer-integrated feet odor, that is, stinky gas. And who knows? perhaps sitting around all the time encourages the formation of FLATULENCE. The scent of one's anal orifice (could be a fart) is used by canines as「buttocks comparisons」when identifying another animal, and is why a dog sniffs hine, so to speak. WORTHLESS, NOT WORTH CONSIDERING and「erection is to blame」may refer to a so-called PUSSYFART, queefing, and may have given rise to the expression,「what's a fart among friends」especially after considering these three elements integrated into one glyph. Clearly, many animals including male human beings pass anal gas frequently, an average of 14 times per day (give or take), so using an element specific to service providers and concubines (匕 so popular in dynastic China) may have been deliberately referring to relatively stink-less benign gas expulsions.
The Chinese dragon emperors maintained harems of thousands of concubines, hence a single「buttocks of concubines」was virtually WORTHLESS, NOT WORTH CONSIDERING from the point of view of the emperor, a FART.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)

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.
