Meanings of elements

PULL UP, JERK UP AND DOWN, STRUGGLE UNTIL FREE, SOMETHING COVERED BY A WHITE FOAMY HEAD, PIERCE, PRICK, STAB, PENETRATION; CLASSIFIER FOR FLOWERS AND BANKNOTE MONEY with HAND, ROD ERECTION with CROTCH ONCE AGAIN, ONE MORE TIME, THIS OR THAT, YIELD, BOTH OF THEM, FURTHER AND MORE
…or: TALENTED USING BOTH OF ONE'S HANDS TO ACCOMPLISH A TASK with STRETCHED SKIN OF CROTCH, THE TOOLS OF ONE'S TRADE, WEAPON READIED, SPEAR-LIKE SHAPE, STIFF ROD

Formerly meaning to TOSS, FLING, CAST OFF, FLICK, CHUCK, PITCH, HURL. Left element of「using both hands」with right element of「stretched crotch skin」or「one's weapon, tool」(tools are normally not flung, but weapons may be). Perhaps the origin of the English term 'spunky.' THROWING or CASTING lots or dice (actually, tossing them nearby), is akin to making an INVESTMENT in a venture that may or may not yield any return, or even return capital…in other words, both activities are a gamble, and may be simply「throwing it away with both hands, as is jerking off」as an anti-capitalist might proclaim. Investing is similar to「tossing a little of your wealth, not too far away from you, but out of your immediate control.」

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: pitching ability, counter for pitches, a throw, a fall, mailing, posting, to throw, to cast away, to face defeat, to give up, to invest, negligent, careless, slovenly, reckless, casual, irresponsible

EDRDG: throw; discard; abandon; launch into; join; invest in; hurl; give up; sell at a loss

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.
