The sages themselves probably read this glyph as「sexual foreplay repeated repeatedly with penis」since to repeat many times with the same penis, or also, a penis repeating many times with the same partner, indicates a high level of ENTRUSTING, which is to give over something of value [one's genitalia] to another for care, protection, or performance (a CONSIGNMENT), and these elements clearly depict the fundamentals of a COMMITMENT. From another angle, if sexual foreplay is being endlessly repeated and not progressing to sexual intercourse, perhaps one of the parties is merely PRETENDING, FEIGNING interest, or, is mentally or physically unable to continue with the next level of performance, leading to MAKING EXCUSES and eventually, COMPLAINING, particularly if the partners are unwilling to seek fulfillment elsewhere, such as with ewe, buddy, and so on.

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?

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.
