Like it or not, alternative explanations must be considered for this glyph:「seeds at tip of stiff stem, hollow shaft」and「tonguing mouth」make the most sense here as licking ejaculated jism from a glans, with SLURPING SOUNDS WHILE RELISHING the experience (or,「having a reason to do so by pretending」to relish it—most service providers are cunning and clever).
「Repeatedly bobbing on head with gonorrhea」will likely be ODORIFEROUS with SLURPING SOUNDS WHILE RELISHING the experience (or,「having a reason to do so by pretending」to relish it) as part of the job description.
Soundly sleeping, or the sounds of sleeping as if snoring when deeply sleeping.「Repeatedly bobbing head with having a reason to do so by pretending」to fall asleep whilst fellating the SAVORY and APPETIZING taste of testosterone, the AROMA and obvious SCENT in the nostrils of the licker and in every breath exhaled, a scent that cannot be ignored: a YUMMY SMELL, or so thought the Chinese.
「Repeatedly bobbing head with anilingus」as ODORIFEROUS (that means directly licking an anus, for pleasure of one or both of the participants, or perhaps to supply a lack of salt in one's diet as do porcupines and swine)…with SLURPING SOUNDS WHILE RELISHING the experience (or,「having a reason to do so by pretending」to relish it, although some folks quite enjoy doing it). Pickles are made by steeping cucumbers, eggplants, radishes and other fruits or vegetables in salty fluids, and fecal matter is quite salty.

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.
