Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
SPREAD LEGS with ROD
…or: ROD VERTICAL in SPREAD LEGS
Elements「spread legs」and「vertical, rod, top to bottom.」May well depict the first prototypes of undergarments, long cloths wrapped「top to bottom between and around spread legs」quite similar to the mawashi or fundoshi LOINCLOTHS (long cloths worn between the loins, or「spread legs」) still worn by wrestlers in Japan today. With some imagination (admittedly), this glyph might look like a hanging CLOTH, perhaps with a crease fold in the center as TEXTILES rolled into「bolts」and wrapped around「surrounding a center rod inside.」This element as a single glyph also means TURBAN, NECKERCHIEF, HEADSCARF as in a long cloth that has been wrapped around the head or neck, and which has contributed for centuries to use of the epithet「diaperhead」in reference to people who have the habit of wearing loincloths wrapped around their heads, such as is the habit of some so persuaded in various orders of Christian nuns, and various folks of other religious persuasions: FREQUENT REPETITION is also needed to reapply one's loincloth after fecal excretion, likely at least once or twice daily as a natural habit.
 Perhaps the Chinese pronunciation (displayed here in Japanese katakana 'fuku') is a possible source of the English word「fuck, fucked.」

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: towel; general purpose cloth; women's headcovering (old)
Japanese: napkin, cloth, width, breadth, freedom, latitude, gap, difference, range, a power, to do as one wishes, to get one's way, to be proud, to boast
Unihan extended: kerchief; towel; turban
EDRDG: towel; hanging scroll; width; cloth radical (no. 50)

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.
