Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
TREE, WOODY STALK, STEM, WOODEN, WOODY and HORIZONTAL, ARRAYED, RECIPROCATING MOTION HORIZONTALLY, ONE and INNER, YOUR WIFE, WITHIN, AMONG or INSERTED IN SPREAD LEGS
…or: TREE, WOODY STALK with NOT MOVABLE, NON-SLIP, 3RD IN SERIES
The「immovable」part made of「wood」here is the HANDLE, GRIP, HILT (of a spear, pestle, crank, dildo, etc.), meaning that the hand should not slip from holding in that location, or, the hand holds firmly the「wood arrayed and inserted in spread legs」and it cannot be moved by an external force without the consent of the holder. BUILD, PHYSIQUE may derive from the way a handle could be shaped and formed to fit an individual's hand shape and build for best performance and a non-slip grip, or the manner in which this device resembled a phallic-shaped physique. Later extended to mean MUSHROOM STALKS, also a bit woody at times, but useful as a HANDLE while eating the mushroom cap raw, and may refer to the fact that mushrooms most often grow atop old tree stumps or roots, wood rotting in the soil, or fecal material deposited by animals as「wood that is immovable.」Another interpretation is「wood inside widely spread legs and person holding onto a pole」added to the obvious meanings of a「mushroom stalk」and「physique」may well be simply a DILDO, a dog's woody「spear with a handle.」Obviously,「woody stalk horizontally inserted in spread legs」would cause only the HANDLE to remain visible.
 SHAFT OF A FLOWER, the euphemism for concubines and harem members, as in the English word「deflower」to describe the initial sexual experience of a virgin, in this case using a dildo.

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.
