Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
HUMAN ERROR, OPERATOR ERROR, INCORRECT POSTURE POSITIONING OR PERFORMANCE with SHAMEFUL, DISFIGURED, MAULED, UGLY LAUGHABLE FOOL JESTER, WATER BUFFALO, CATTLE, HERD MEAT ASSET or SCREWED TWISTED in PULLED TO ONE SIDE, MASHED OUT OF SHAPE
「Human error with disfigurement」: modern elements are「sheep」with「the head to one side, dammed, sliding down, an accumulation」above「joker, mauled, disfigured」meaning SHEEPISH or TIMID, COY, MEEK, SHY, BASHFUL, ASHAMED, turning away from attention, describing a man who has become disfigured due to sexually transmitted infection and is now ashamed to display his penis before others in the bath house, or to females with no-longer-integrated feet that were formed by an amateur. SHEEPISH likely needs no additional explanation to mean resembling a sheep in one way, or another, or at least as it describes man's affinity for ewe. SHEEPISH also means embarrassed, consciousness of a fault, meek, or stupid. 2,600 pound water buffalos () aren't truly shy at all, having the proclivity at times when provoked for stomping upon an adversary until becoming a greasy spot in bloody mud (the adversary, that is). Note that not all fonts include「the head of, dammed, sliding down, an accumulation」element as a separate stroke.
 Chinese sources list this glyph as a variant of「delicacies」() that would relate to COY, TIMID behavior perhaps, feigned or not, as a meek service provider and these elements as 「rod in flesh seam, kingly emissions of head sliding and screwing in flesh pulling to one side」of her set of no-longer-integrated feet. Note that having badly mauled no-longer-integrated feet was disgusting in dynastic China. FOOT BINDING was:
 「…[T]he custom of applying painfully tight binding to the feet of young girls to prevent further growth. …What is clear is that foot binding was first practiced among the elite and only in the wealthiest parts of China, which suggests that binding the feet of well-born girls represented their freedom from manual labor. This implied that the future husbands of such girls could afford wives who did not need to work, who existed solely to serve their men and direct household servants while performing no labor themselves. …Bound feet were a mark of beauty that became a prerequisite for finding a husband, as well as an avenue for poorer women to marry into money. Women, their families, and [a husband] took great pride in tiny feet, with the ideal length, called the 'Golden Lotus,' being about 7 cm (2.75 inches) long. …Bound feet were once considered intensely erotic in Chinese culture, and a woman with perfect lotus feet was likely to make a more prestigious marriage. Qing Dynasty sex manuals listed 48 different ways of playing with women's bound feet.」

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: shy; ashamed; shame; bashful; variant of 饈|馐; delicacies
Japanese: shame, embarrassment, shyness, to feel ashamed, to feel shy, to be bashful, to blush
Unihan extended: disgrace, shame; ashamed; shy
EDRDG: feel ashamed

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.
