Note the Japanese pronunciation may mean「to change by licking」「licking skin」as a means of processing skin prior to use. One myth explains some societies long ago put toothless elderly folks to work by having them chew on leather to soften it, yet real evidence suggests that other tools fashioned from harder materials than human gingiva, such as elk bone, were used.「To change by licking skin」may not be the best way to immediately soften a male as a contrary reaction is often the case, but this technique is highly recommended when attempting to mate with a female who needs a bit of softening foreplay: many animal species do exactly that: canids, horses, bears, cattle, and bats are examples of species that perform cunnilingus regularly, and not only human beings. Skin from which the hair or fur has been removed makes for easier licking, as it were. Note that hairs can be plucked or shaven to produce hairless skin, or, obviously the skin can be prepubescent and therefore need no prior preparation: see the glyphs meaning 'underrated' 舓, 甞, and 嘗 for details.

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.
