[Chinese version] upper element of「foot dis-integrating process」with a divine, young prepubescent girl, meaning「to cease, stop further movement」with one aspect directly referring to the girl's future ability to walk, or lack thereof, and another perhaps, as an admonition to「stop the practice of foot-busting.」As depicted in erotic Chinese art, men in dynastic China masturbated by wrapping no-longer-integrated feet around an erect penis:「Bound feet were once considered intensely erotic in Chinese culture. …The process was started before the arch of the foot had a chance to develop fully, usually between the ages of 2 and 5. …Qing Dynasty sex manuals listed 48 different ways of playing with women's [no-longer-integrated] bound feet」(after removing the binding cloths, of course) [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot_binding 2012-12-17 ] a「busted foot and a partial [left half] emission stream with head sliding」indicates STAGES OF PROGRESS during use [left foot first?], ALTERNATING MOTIONS WITH ONE FOOT AND THEN THE OTHER.
Lower-center element is either「stream」or「rod, vertical reciprocating motion」[varies by font]. If「head sliding with rod streaming emissions is stopped」by no longer using no-longer-integrated feet in this manner, or not dis-integrating feet in the first place, then each young girl can continue WALKING, TAKING STEPS, MAKING PROGRESS: see 少 meaning「something that ought to be stopped.」
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: a step; a pace; walk; march; stages in a process
Unihan extended: step, pace; walk, stroll
EDRDG: step; pace; walk; stroll
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.
