Meanings of elements

TERRACED SOIL SLOPE and OPPOSE
…or: HUMAN BACKSIDE with HAND, ROD ERECT in CROTCH
…or: HUMAN BACKSIDE with FORESKIN

As one climbs a SLOPE, it seems that the「hill opposes」upward progress. Moreover, nearly as much effort can be required to prevent yourself from stumbling down a steep slope as it does to climb one, that is, the slope opposes your efforts to slow down. Glyph includes「terraced slopes」used formerly for FARMLAND in steps of irrigated strips around a hill, and not flat land that is often used today.
　「Curtain crotch with human backside」such as a skirt or dress will also accentuate the SLOPE of the buttocks and small of the lower back, waist.「Hand on crotch with human backside」refers to an INCONVENIENT PLACE, DIFFICULT TO REACH as perhaps the action of an obese person attempting to wipe up after defecating.「Naked human backside with skinned back penile sheath」refers to DIFFICULT TO REACH and needs no further explanation.「Human backside and arrayed erection with crotch」as the HEIGHTS, a place for sowing seeds, plowing soil, furrowing, a slippery slope, series of muck-filled cracks with slurry, green emerging grain shafts, and so on.

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)

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.
