Meanings of elements

SPREAD-LEGGED SPURTING with GLANS
…or: DISOBEDIENCE in SPREAD LEGS
…or: SPURTING STANCE of GLANS within SPREAD LEGS
…or: FAILURE TO PROPERLY CONNECT within SPREAD LEGS

「Stance with glans inside spread legs」creating a RISING LINE OR MOUND OF SOIL that can only originate from one type of orifice located within legs, the anus. Although, some sources claim the elements were「weaving within spread legs, net」(网) with「glans in spread legs, yearning for, yen for」in reference to the MOUNDED shape of poultice and gauze netting covering a groin, a CODPIECE shaped as is a KNOLL, BERM, or simply the bulge in the pants of a man or the mons venus of a woman. Depending upon the size, such a codpiece could be INTIMIDATING as the meat begins JUTTING from within, or worse, the fluids are leaking and no longer contained.
Element 冂 with 山 drawn inside is the old method of writing「yen, yearning for」(円) in China, with this glyph depicting a rising mound of some sort of soil due to a glans spurting within legs…repeated tamping and impacting, compacting what is before it. See the glyphs meaning 'both sides' (両) for more 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.
