Elements as「important things, harem herd, meat on the hoof, chattel with an orifice」coincide with the explanation of FEMALE VOCALIZATION during sexual activity that INFORMS the whole harem room about what might be occurring.
「Noticeable, red flag」with「orifice」or「pulled out of mouth」to MAKE A STATEMENT, INFORM. As a REVELATION, to CONFESS, to PROPOSE, to ACCUSE, all may relate to something figuratively「pulled from a mouth」but also literally as「withdrawal from orifice」(or, not withdrawing when doing so was expected, of course. See 先) and then having to deal with all the subsequent related issues of confession, proposals, and accusations.
Some fonts, and some actual usage in Japan, display「getting lucky, penis with orifice」(吉) using the elements「soil orifice」and if that is applicable with this glyph, then「head getting lucky in soil orifice」as a REVELATION, to CONFESS, to PROPOSE, to ACCUSE all make sense (linguistically that is. Again, see the related glyph 先).

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.
