Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
COCK with SPREAD FEET over ORIFICE
…or: WINE JAR EACH
…or: EVERY COCK
Fermentation process occurring in「each wine jar」although the separate elements for「each」might make the most sense in this glyph:「slowly descending clotted clumps from bottleneck shape.」Finally, after the level of alcohol builds up in wine enough to kill the inhabiting yeast, the dead yeast and lees will clump into chunks, slowly descend to the bottom of the jar, settle and harden.「Spread feet」and「coming down from above」refer to wine LEES, and to whitish CURDS of clumped milk that has soured or with alcohol poured into it causing curds and whey to form, SOUR CREAM, and to all such DAIRY products.
A similar process is used to make tōfu, by causing soy milk to curdle and then settle (by adding an alkaline solution called nigari, not alcohol). See 奴「female sex slave crotch」and its meaning as 'curdled soy milk, cold tōfu curds.'
Further thought about the individual elements might create an unappetizing recollection each time you see cheese in the future, hence doing so is discouraged. Nevertheless, for the brave, elements are「cock, rooster」with「spread feet above orifice」depicting the stance used by a cock standing with one foot on each side of the hen's tail while mounting upon her back in order to copulate by dripping ejaculate into her everted cloaca. This area of a hen is often bald of feathers for this reason after continued use. As for the connection with a「cock」and a concubine's deep skin folds in「each」of her no-longer-integrated foot「orifices」and what sort of clumping, clotting, curdled fermentation and slow descent occurs after continued use, you are on your own to imagine.
It is no coincidence that the English root word「broth」meaning fluids in which meat has been heated, cooked and fired, is used to describe「someone who broths」as a brother and a「house for brothing」as a brothel.

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)

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.
