Nevertheless,「two simultaneously (instead of merely one) with a sex slave girl's no-longer-integrated feet slits, foot crotches, groin crotch」did bring in extra money for the shaman selling those services while maximizing full utilization of available assets, and, the experience also caused feelings of YEN, LONGING FOR, a YEARNING in clients.
「Emissions with downward thrusting」represents TORTUROUS. Scholars say this element is used as the lower portion of「tattoo needle, penis」(辛), used to mark and identify purchased slaves, as did foot-binding in most cases.
「In the past few years, police in the United States say they have noticed that traffickers are making their mark on the girls like never before. It's all part of the gang culture that has taken over the sex trade in the streets of America. In a disgusting display of dehumanization, the traffickers brand or tattoo the girls to show they own them. The marks on the girls tell their story on the street.」
「Some girls have several different tattoos. Each time they are worked by a different trafficker, they are branded with different labels. Sometimes it's an old-fashioned money-bags image. Sometimes it's diamonds. Sometimes it's a trafficker's name across the forehead. Sometimes it's an ATM etched on the skin near their groin. We've even seen a barcode put on a girl's wrist, like an item in a grocery store.」
「America has seen these marks before. Slave masters used branding as a way to mark the African American men, women, and children they bought and sold. It's 2015, and slavery is still alive. It's just taken a different form.」

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.
