With「fallen or sitting person」a bent over person who often falls on his or her buttocks as in very OLD AGE with a bad case of osteoporosis, or incontinency as someone「sitting and sliding in feces」and with the need to「bundle his woody shaft for scooping up fluids」: diapered with INCONTINENCE cloths. Perhaps an allusion to what today is known as Alzheimer's disease, a condition of dementia that for the most part affects the ELDERLY far more often than younger folks.
EXPERIENCED not only due to age (that should be obvious). As male humans enter old age, the level of testosterone decreases, and apparently one natural manner of hormone replacement therapy in dynastic China prior to the days of industrial pharma was for a toothless old man to fellate and swallow the semen of younger, more virile males:「old man, homosexual as a service provider」: see 暙, and never mind the drool. By the way, some cultures today still perform this style of hormone replacement therapy. DebunKanji does not state a moral opinion regarding the use of the term FAGOT (FAGGOT) to describe HOMOSEXUAL MALES, but is simply explaining how and why the use of the term originated, and the glyphs behind that usage.
「In traditional Chinese medicine, there has never been a mental disease called pedophilia (or an equivalent term), or homosexuality, or most of the other so-called sexual variations for that matter.」

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment
(see 籒 for that)
and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language.
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!
Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up.
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 bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only 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 dictionary.
This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
