Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
PENIS in CAVITY
…or: SCREWING with ORIFICE
「Penis in cavity」or「filling, screwing with an orifice」as the method instinctively passed along by many species to future generations over hundreds of millions of years, being the ANCIENT, OLD, CLASSIC method of humans and other animals for copulation, noting that old glyphs meaning 'to sell services' use「penis in cavity」or「screwing with an orifice」together with「flowing fluids」(沽) or「person」(估) as a reference to someone in the sexual services providing business.
Other glyphs graphically depict all sorts of alternative methods, the 'new' ways that supposedly devolved from so-called 'flashings of brilliance, enlightenment, divine revelation, being glorious' and so on, similar to methods used by boars, bats, and bonobos…or, using the meat of no-longer-integrated feet on a prepubescent female human, similar to methods used by no animals except mankind (pairing 'man' with 'kind' seems to be an oxymoron in that sense).
Yet, given the high level of knowledge concerning the human body possessed by the ancient Chinese, may also depict an OLD man with the top portion as his「penis」merged with a ballooning, swollen prostate gland at its base, a common condition of OLD men…. And therefore, in some glyphs this element has replaced「stiff, stretched skin」(居, 凥) as it refers to male genitals. Elements as「blockage」outside of an「orifice」somewhat describes that same swollen prostate condition affecting the ability to urinate, also common among OLD men.
「Old」with「buttocks」(居) denotes at a standstill, not moving as if constipated.「Old genitals」(居) also denotes at a standstill, not moving, and so on with other Used-in glyphs.

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.
