Meanings of elements
SHAME of BOUGIE TWISTING AND REAMING with POULTICE NETTING ARRAY
…or: HEARING, LISTENING, ADJUST BALANCE AND POSITIONING, ADJUST INTERNAL PRESSURE, EAR, SOLDIER, CLAN FLAG and KING and FASTIDIOUS, METICULOUS ATTENTION TO DETAIL, EXCESSIVELY SCRUPULOUS OR SENSITIVE, EASILY BECOMING DISGUSTED
Most likely, gossip and whispering about who has a dose of gonorrhea with a spewing penis encased in an array of poultice nettings and having the internal pressure adjusted by reaming with a bougie, a red flag of danger.
TINNITUS is hearing a constant whispered noise such as buzzing, ringing, or whistling, heard in the ear without an external stimulus and having multiple causes including infection,「shame of a royal person」being what everyone is whispering about.
「Ear, listening」「virtue」to LISTEN CAREFULLY.「Ear」resembles the shape of a vertical flag attached to a pole used in China and Japan to identify soldiers as belonging to one side or the other of a battle, and foot soldiers were required to LISTEN CAREFULLY and to obey all orders, or in fact die. Often the enemy would sever the heads of the fallen and hang them on display (as did the English, on London Bridge), so the fear of death and decapitation was in the mind of soldiers who did not listen well. AUDIENCE being those in attendance who are listening. Listen and actually hear, or not hear (AUDITORY). An AUDITOR being one who listens (and watches) carefully.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: (literary pronunciation, still advocated in Taiwan) to rule; to sentence; to allow; to listen; to hear; to obey; a can (loanword from English "tin"); classifier for canned beverages
Japanese EDRDG: careful enquiry, headstrong
Unihan extended: hear, listen; understand; obey

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.
