「Person」with「erection and rod in reciprocating motion in arch」as ornamentation of a female body part worn on a male's lower head.「Person do not do this」implies many meanings, not the least of which was instruction not to wrap no-longer-integrated feet around an erect rod, or wrap used foot-binding cloths around one's head (as a client was prone to do when intoxicated with wine or opium, for instance). In each of these cases, the stuff that stuck to one's hair was quite difficult to remove, odor and all.
「Person with stench cloud」in Japanese refers to a HUMAN CORPSE, naturally.
The Taoist sages held Buddhists and the Buddha in the greatest contempt, so it is no wonder these elements are「person」who「does not.」Buddha's doctrines are replete with「do not unto…」(don't perform such and such an action or behavior) rather than positive advice, such as「do unto…」Undeniably, old Sidd wasted many years simply sitting and staring down at his groin and umbilicus waiting for enlightenment, even by his own admission behavior that was a mistake.
「Person with stench cloud」since Siddhartha did not bathe for six years, and then sat in his own excrement for seven weeks, per his biographers.「Person, do not perform these actions」or「person likely to injure himself from improper handling or ignoring the rules」are explained in detail by the right element.
「The Buddha, or 'enlightened one,' was born Siddhartha Gautama. …[S]ix years, Siddhartha lived an ascetic life and partook in its practices, studying and meditating using the words of various religious teachers as his guide. He practiced his new way of life with a group of five ascetics, and his dedication to his quest was so stunning that the five ascetics became Siddhartha's followers. When answers to his questions did not appear, however, he redoubled his efforts, enduring pain, fasting nearly to starvation, and refusing water. …Whatever he tried, Siddhartha could not reach the level of satisfaction he sought, until one day when a young girl offered him a bowl of rice. As he accepted it, he suddenly realized that corporeal austerity was not the means to achieve inner liberation, and that living under harsh physical constraints was not helping him achieve spiritual release. So he had his rice, drank water and bathed in the river.」

「Following this incident, Gautama was famously seated under a pipal tree—now known as the Bodhi tree—in Bodh Gaya, India, when he vowed never to arise until he had found the truth. Kaundinya and four other companions, believing that he had abandoned his search and become undisciplined, left. After a reputed 49 days of meditation, at the age of 35, he is said to have attained Enlightenment.」

Note that after six years of doing nothing but fasting, meditating, and not bathing, he stank. One dip in river water, then after 49 days of sitting in his own feces and urine, he stank. Or, we cannot believe these biographical stories are telling the truth—after all, during this time he was still human, or so the story goes. Also in Chinese meaning SEEMINGLY as a reference to the source of an approaching stench accompanying a person, detectable from afar.
FRANCE, the FRENCH PEOPLE:
「While there are numerous stereotypes about the French that are completely inaccurate, it turns out the whole 'French people never shower' thing may indeed be true. A new poll conducted by BVA and published in French newspaper Presse-Ocean reveals that only 57% of the French shower daily. 24% said they shower once every other day. 11% said once every three days. The remaining 8% shower just once every four days…or less. And when the French are in the shower, it's not for very long, either. The study found that a French person spends, on average, nine minutes a day in the shower. That's like, the amount of time it takes to finally register that you are no longer sleeping and begin to lift up your bar of soap…so…」

Alternatively「person and do not perform this action」if referring literally to a FEMALE HEAD ORNAMENT is the result of ejaculate sticking to her hair (a「person's stink」) and being unable to remove it until fully dried with a comb, forced to wear it in her hair since it cannot be washed out…obviously, her head and hair were fairly close to the point of ejaculation at the moment of climax, or worse, her silky smooth hair was used as the medium of that exchange, as are「person with dollars」(Note:「Do not perform this action with a person」says it all, perhaps.)
How all this relates to spreading disease with dollars and French service providers with compassionate religion may have something to do with both world wars.

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.
