Old men in China had long pubic hairs that waved a bit (facial beards are one form of pubic hair).
　Long-haired cattle may have been aurochs. Aurochs were the ancestors of domestic cattle, believed to finally have become extinct about 400 years ago:
　「A feature often attributed to the aurochs is blond forehead hairs. Historical descriptions tell that the aurochs had long and curly forehead hair, but none mentions a certain colour for it.」
　　[　https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurochs 2013-07-19　]　
　Aurochs were far more aggressive than the remaining breeds of domesticated cattle. The eventual victor of the male battles during mating season won a harem of females all in estrus, impatiently awaiting his arrival with their reward. Females also battled one another for the right to be nearer the front of the line.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: variant of 耄; banner decorated with animal's tail
Unihan extended: a kind of ancient flag; old
EDRDG: tassel on a flag; long haired cow; old man

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.
