Etymology of CUNNING in English quite literally was derived from the root words 'cunt, cunte'…and「female(s) with dildo」would naturally be exercising its application to some orifice(s) in that general vicinity while CUNNING, perhaps stealthily and with cleverness to avoid a scolding by the lord's eunuchs. Note the variant of this glyph is 姦 that clearly depicts a joint effort among a group of females, likely the lord's harem filled with bored beauties,…or wherever actually, such as a teenage 'slumber' party. TRAITOR seems to suggest that this behaviour was somehow a betrayal of the lord's goodwill.
Chinese males may have preferred to be in positions other than thrusting downward, perhaps to share some of the effort with a partner and receive more of the pleasure. The downward thrusting penis position so common among Christian missionaries was reserved in China for victims of rape, or necrophilia enthusiasts (rather dry thrusting), and that fact alone may have accounted for something to consider deeply regarding the average Oriental view of Christian teachings…in Asia historically, the preferred position was what is referred to ascoitus more ferarum or「doggy-style」in the West, and may also be why the old Zodiac glyph for「dog」is often used to represent「penis, coital actions, schtupping (ejaculation into a birth canal or other attainable orifice)」(戊, 戈).

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.
