Meanings of elements

CLEAN of CONFLICT
…or: ARGUE and BLUE
…or: PRICK MEAT with CONFLICT

「Conflict, arguing until blue」(in the face?) refers to passing out MOTIONLESS, unconscious due to apoplexy, or strangulation of course, with the result being QUELLED, CALMED, now PEACEFUL and SERENE, and with NO FURTHER MOVEMENT anticipated from the blue corpse at least.
「Undefiled, pure and clean」of「conflict」meaning STATIC and lacking further movement, QUELLED, CALMED, all is now PEACEFUL and SERENE. Left element is「pure, clean, blue」and the right is [Chinese version]「hand reaching down」grabbing another person,「hand holding rod or streaming fluids」to facilitate the release of tension or fluids. Still today, many couples engage「prick meat, prick yen, longing」after a fight when the situation has QUELLED, CALMED, is now PEACEFUL and SERENE.
Japanese elements are「head and neck, wrapped」in a「hand holding rod with stream of fluids」to indicate「contend, vie, dispute, conflict.」Seems to be referring to a dispute, perhaps among a group of concubines over the right to tend to their master by providing service, or more likely among a disappointed patron and the guards of a gateway to the brothel quarter, easily settled by the guards, naturally. Glyph also represents the resolution of the conflict with the「prick」in someone's「meat」when all the excitement is QUELLED, a scene common among fighting couples and on a battlefield in the good old days as blue corpses were ravaged by the victorious. In many fonts, the left elements are the original elements of「prick with vulva between spread legs, clean」to settle the issue.

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.
