Formerly in dynastic China, PROPER BREEDING by pairing one's「meat with no bone」and「two hands on the rear of a sheep in a correct performance of zooerastia, beautifully and cleverly done」(actually, improper breeding, since the human species is not known to be able to fertilize sheep ova—but it was thought that it couldn't hurt to try, anyway). In Japan, now referring to PHYSICAL TRAINING and DISCIPLINE for maintaining「beautiful body meat」and perhaps the correct performance, beautifully done for a new and beautiful ewe or one's own meat.

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.
