Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
SUCCESSFUL MATING, PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION FOR ONE'S OWN TUBER ROOTED IN SOIL and COUNTER FOR BIRD CHICKS AND BUNNIES, PLUMES
…or: FLUID and BEAUTIFUL YOUNG BIRD
「Flow like a pheasant」flying as it flaps its wings means to RINSE. In particular, the sound and action of flapping a wet towel or an item of wet laundry after rinsing, and the sound of a pheasant flapping its wings as it takes flight are noticeably similar…the pheasant's long wings smack together at the tips during takeoff.
「Flow while in training, successful mating while generating pool of gelatinous slime, and person palming prick for mating display」all indicate RINSING and cleansing at some point in time, as well as POURING OVER THE TOP. The flapping sound of the pheasant's wings may also resemble the sounds of slapping and whacking as both persons touch themselves, one still「in training」and the other in the「courtship display, person with hand on prick.」
Mating like a tuber in soil to CLEANSE A PAST EVIL and WASH AWAY A DISGRACE, by rinsing off the demon corkscrews of syphilis (if possible)? maybe though, going home unwashed to HAVE HIS REVENGE UPON SOMEONE (his elder brothers?) and GET EVEN with them, literally, by implanting some of those corkscrews tuber-style.
Related glyph in Chinese (櫂) means to scull or row with a wooden paddle,「dipping only slightly into clear water while applying a back and forth hand motion on a woody, a rod.」
Interestingly, some Japanese versions of this glyph use multiple「grasping and reaming」(⺕) elements or「gushing chunks」(勿, without the 'head' attached) rather than the two congealing no-longer-integrated feet elements used in traditional Chinese glyphs, yet both sets of elements could describe a「plume」only that in the Japanese case the referent may be to release of a long, arching discharge of fluids under pressure by a medical services provider rather than to no-longer-integrated feet that were not commonly found in Japan. Needless to point out perhaps is that the Chinese uses of two no-longer-integrated feet (羽) also were designed to cause the same sort of release of fluids under pressure in long, arching spurts and gushing chunks discharged in a plume of fluids.
In any case, not a pretty sight.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: to wash; to cleanse of evil; variant of 櫂|棹
Japanese EDRDG: laundry, wash, pour on, rinse
Unihan extended: wash out, rinse; cleanse

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.
