Meanings of elements

DEEP FEELING of LOVING A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN

「Deep feelings」for a「goddess-like woman」(unrequited, perhaps? a diva prostitute?), or「deep feeling of many strokes on diseased bent and shortened pus-at-meatus dripping stinky pecker in two big manly hands」in a tertiary (stage three) condition of illness, meaning TORMENT, CRUELTY IMPOSED BY ANOTHER, WRETCHED, PITEOUS, EXCEPTIONAL MISERY, INHUMANLY BRUTAL, LURID, GRUESOME…frankly, while unrequited feelings for a beautiful woman can and do hurt for a time, these feelings will soon subside for most males often simply by visiting a gentleman's club that offers pole dancing, or waiting a day or so and then more than likely he will have forgotten about her, or spending some quality time loving himself, so the given meanings are more likely related to the severity of a physical, incurable infection of a critical body part held dear, and not a female…unless she is someone he sees frequently but can never have, being a wonder of the cave o' wonders herself (see 'horrified, seeping, ooze' 渗).

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: miserable; wretched; cruel; inhuman; disastrous; tragic; dim; gloomy
Japanese EDRDG: wretched, disaster, cruelty, harsh
Unihan extended: sad, pitiful, wretched; cruel

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. 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, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

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 seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they 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 lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
