Refers to an area within a「lord's realm that has been contained」as the government's attempt to cordon off with low walls (匡), foot patrols, and inspection gateways (鬥) for the purpose of restoring order and public health, correcting the spread of infectious disease from certain city or town quarters, districts, zones and rectify a problem, assist and save the populace from vice and illness rampant in the red-lined prostitution districts: SNAKE-EYED…here is what Aunty Flo thinks about it:
「If you haven't heard of the term “snake in the grass”, now is a good time to think about what that saying really means. When dealing with a person with snake eyes, you will want to be very aware that this person generally has intentions of ill-will, even though they may try to hide that fact from you. What makes this worse is that they will act ruthlessly and later on show no true signs of remorse or guilt. In this case a high intelligence is paired with a duplicitous moral character. This means that this person will outsmart and outwit most people and will do so with malicious intent. This snake eyed individual will stop at nothing to get their way, should something or someone become an obstruction in their path, this person will undoubtedly employ a cunning tactic to remove their obstacle. People with snake eyes will strive to outrival their peers and they don't care about what they need to do to excel, and since this person has little to no moral standings, they also don't care who they step on as long as they are getting what they want. The ability to lack principles is sometimes envied by those who feel that they are the ones being stepped on, but they are a lot of things that may cause this way of life to be highly unattractive.」

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.
