Meanings of elements

INTERCOURSE with EMPEROR or DEIFIED BEING IN FIRM CONTROL

The「words, speech」of a「deified being」cannot be doubted, and so are to be taken as literal TRUTH. And if so, the words cannot be argued or doubted, so that there is NO ALTERNATIVE, NO OTHER CHOICE except to RESIGNEDLY ACCEPT, ACQUIESCE to the reality and truth that has been spoken by the demigod. GIVE UP your own way of thinking and accept the decree of destiny.
　Alternatively,「sexual intercourse with the emperor」would set you up for life back then, much like winning a $300 million Powerball jackpot today and not having to share it. Better to get a grip and ACCEPT REALITY: hey, that is it just not about to happen, so GIVE UP, ACCEPT THE TRUTH, ACQUIESCE, RESIGNED ACCEPTANCE of the way things are and get a life. Anyone engaged in「sex with the emperor」also must do whatever the emperor desires, no matter what those desires may be, and so all the partners must understand that there is NO ALTERNATIVE, NO OTHER CHOICE except to RESIGNEDLY ACCEPT, ACQUIESCE to what has been demanded by the demigod. More likely, though, is that it is best to GIVE UP thinking about being able to have「intercourse with the emperor」verbal or otherwise, as much as one might desire to do so.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)

Japanese: resignation, acceptance, consolation, to give up, to abandon, to resign oneself, to accept
Unihan extended: careful, attentive
EDRDG: truth; clarity; abandon; give up

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.
