Meanings of elements

SITTING PERSON and REAMING, ERECTION in NO-LONGER-INTEGRATED FEET
…or: SLASHED and SEVERED
…or: ROD CHEWED and SEVERED

[Elements vary by font] traditional fonts use「chewed, masticated (レ)」「biting concubine」and modern fonts「person sitting」「slashed」together with「sever, cut, blade, erection in no-longer-integrated foot」meaning to SEVER COMPLETELY, FINISH OFF, the FINAL PERFORMANCE of one's lifetime…purely for the entertainment value of doing so, circus geeks used to bite the head off of a live snake, and these elements are suggestive of that same sort of action occurring in a cave o' wonders.
　Various other meanings associated with「eagerly reaming a no-longer-integrated foot」and concepts all combined of「slashing and severing the bindings of a concubine's no-longer-integrated foot」to achieve no-waiting, immediate access is suggestive of being a bit EAGER, ARDENT. And the FINAL PERFORMANCE OF THE DAY would entail SHAKING OFF FLUIDS, DRIP DRYING, DRAINING THE SCOOP. Erect penile penetration into the flesh crease of the bent sole would necessarily be TANGENTIAL, using a TANGENT as the angle of entry, insertion…and so on with all the various given meanings.

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.
