Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
BASTARDS ORIFICE SCREWING
…or: TWENTY OR SO SCREWING in VULVA, JUXTAPOSED ORIFICES
「Twenty or so, screwing on both sides」might suggest that the associated often-used skin has become a bit LEATHERY after years of applying salts and drying agents if referring to a service provider's feet (䐈).「Twenty or so」「vulvas in array」as A LOT OF SPLAYED SKIN, that of females posing who have been DEPOSED, as in 'removed from the normal position within society' hoping to be selected while on display at the meat market or sex slave auction.
Also meaning REFORM, REVOLUTIONARY, TANNING THE HIDE of someone posing in an official position and then being DEPOSED, with elements as「bastards screwing orifices.」
「Twenty or so, needle twisting in orifices」or perforated holes, perhaps depicting the process of stitching together pieces of ANIMAL HIDE. After skinning, a hide was often soaked in lime to remove everything from its「two sides」: any hair from the outer side, and clinging fat, small meat chunks, veins and remaining hairs were scraped off until the inner skin was clean. The hide was then stretched taut and tacked to a flat piece of wood until dried. After removal from the stretcher, the hide was chewed (literally, by humans originally) bated and beaten to break down the internal structure until it became sufficiently soft. Then the hide was tanned in a concoction of feces, urine, salt, and brains as a preservative measure: the tanning process used to manufacture LEATHER. Removal of a hide entailed the insertion of a sharp object into the anus, cutting that orifice wider, and then pulling out the flesh, bones, and viscera through the widened rectum as the skin was rolled toward the nose and front paws, surrounding the meat of the animal. Glyph itself resembles a splayed carcass, to some folks, or A PIECE OF SPLAYED SKIN.

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.
