Welcome! Introduction
Glyphs missing from your font set may appear strange, or not at all. We recommend enabling East Asian language support.

Reference to small bunnies describes the manner in which the young girls hopped about on all fours until their feet healed sufficiently after dis-integrating to enable standing somewhat upright. Reference to newly-hatched chicks describes the manner in which the young girls needed to hobble around with arms extended holding onto things after having their feet no-longer-integrated…see 羽 that combines two of these elements, one for each foot, used in China as a counter both for bird chicks and for bunnies—an unnatural anatomical relationship between two animal species that is only repeated in Easter traditions, adding fodder as nesting grass.
In many fonts, particularly Japanese fonts, this element appears in modern glyphs identical to「moon」with which it is related as a position used by female primates in estrus as an invitation to copulate by「mooning the males, displaying meat.」
Some browsers will not display this glyph using certain fonts…the actual glyph may possibly be seen within other glyphs as an element.
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?

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.
