Meanings of elements

INTERCOURSE, SPEAK WORDS or SEXUAL ACTIVITY and RECEIVING WITH BOTH HANDS, DISCIPLINARY ACTION, BEATING

「Speaking while beating」as the old-fashioned method of interrogation during an OFFICIAL INQUIRY.「Sexual intercourse with sticky wad in no-longer-integrated foot」refers to the lord and other public officials getting first dibs (claim of right, or the 'right of kings') on the new crop of young and small handfuls, an OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION of the graduating apprentices from the shaman's lair, those who commanded the highest prices being offered to those with the highest ability to pay and bid against one another at auction for the flesh displayed…although, try-before-you-buy was used promotionally even back in the old days, for those 'exceptional' clients (it was all just about 'best practices' for the business, even back then).

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.
