[Elements vary by font and positioning]「orifice that must be avoided, guard against」with「snake, penis in orifice」refers to a person with a LARGE MOUTH or LARGE JAW, capable of enclosing an entire piece of meat at one time, with the accompanying risks (and potential rewards), or, a mouth orifice that ought to avoid a huge snaking penis. Note that snakes are endowed with a naturally LARGE MOUTH, LARGE JAW for swallowing relatively large prey in comparison with its mouth size:「'One of the enduring myths about snake feeding mechanisms is the idea that the jaws detach,' explained Patrick T. Gregory, a biology professor at the University of Victoria. 'In fact, they stay connected all the time.' The two lower jaws move independently of one another, Gregory said. The quadrate bone is not rigidly attached to the skull, but articulates with the skull at one end and is therefore freely moving. 'The two mandibles are not joined at the front by a rigid symphysis, as ours are, but by an elastic ligament that allows them to spread apart,' Gregory said.」

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.
