Glyph also means ENERGY BLAST or SPURT, and to EJACULATE or SPURT JISM (lower-left stroke「sliding head」protruding as a schmekel?), a prerequisite in the old days to pregnancy, but no longer, though. Left element is clearly not always or only an archer's bow as some insist. Weapon being shot is more often is likely a male's tool (殳), stretched skin in crotch, his dirk, arrow, pointed shaft.
When one's「social position is in squeezing grip」it can be expected for that person to SHOOT or STRIKE at whatever is perceived to be the source of the stress.

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.
