Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
CLIFF and ROLLED
…or: COILED in HAND
…or: HAND on PENIS IN NO-LONGER-INTEGRATED FOOT
…or: CURTAINED and JOINED WITH A TIGHT SEAL
Simplified substitute glyph for , 'twisted within buttocks repeatedly': see that entry for details.「Coiled hand」indicating a fisted grip perhaps, a posture humans often assume while in DISTRESS, or, while tightly grasping something. Some have suggested a「kneeling and bent over person」kept behind a「curtain」due to illness, accident, deformity…or with something twisted within buttocks repeatedly as the original glyph depicted. Alternatively,「rolled at the bottom of a cliff」after falling down a slope. Either way, that is certainly MISFORTUNE and BAD LUCK. These same elements also depict being grabbed from behind a「curtain and sodomized」or「rod erect but bent and twisted」that may have been a particularly high-risk or bad luck event in ancient China, to wit: getting shafted as it is expressed in English parlance.
 「Hand tightly sealed around curled penis」suggests being forced to give oneself a selfie for whatever reason, rather than having a partner. But more likely,「hand on no-longer-integrated foot curled around a penis」refers to the plight of a sex slave, a young girl with crushed feet bones to prevent her escape, and to create two more orifices for sexual exploitation:「Viewing women as commodities [see ] was also made customary from Song Dynasty (960 - 1279) forward, both in the suddenly expanded labor market and within relationships. Men could sell their female kin to slavery or prostitution, and frequently did.」

 「Bound feet were a mark of beauty…. Women, their families, and their husbands took great pride in tiny feet, with the ideal length, called the 'Golden Lotus,' being about 7 cm (2.75 inches) long. …The process was started before the arch of the foot had a chance to develop fully, usually between the ages of 2 and 5. …Qing Dynasty sex manuals listed 48 different ways of playing with women's bound feet.」

 「In traditional Chinese medicine, there has never been a mental disease called pedophilia (or an equivalent term), or homosexuality, or most of the other so-called sexual variations for that matter [such as, masturbation using the no-longer-integrated feet of prepubescent girls, or tupping a ewe lamb]. …Children are usually described as natural sexual beings and erotic stimulation and sex-play are seen as beneficial to their healthy development.」

 Without a doubt, the Irish also have knowledge of their own to pass along in these trying times:「Masturbation will not spread coronavirus, especially if you wash your hands (and any sex toys) with soap and water for at least 20 seconds before and after.」Nonetheless and regrettably, unlike in dynastic China, it must be undertaken alone to truly be a preventative countermeasure but still achieve the desired result with some degree of safety.

 The Dutch, too have the same solution—it seems masturbation has become mainstream in the media the world over due to the coronavirus (it has always been 'the main stream' in reality, albeit covertly for most folks):
 「'Don't have sex with your partner if they have been isolated because of (suspected) coronavirus infection,' the RVIM says. 'Sex with yourself or with others at a distance is possible (think of telling erotic stories, masturbating together).'」

 Needless to point out perhaps, but Chinese shamans from antiquity hit upon the same solution as a pandemic preventative countermeasure, honed for ultimate client satisfaction by utilizing naked females with no-longer-integrated feet as masturbatory sex buddies available for short-term rental with erotic visualization of live prepubescent female genitalia engaging in autoerotic stimulation herself, as a solution to the same problem facing us now, but in pre-Internet days.

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)
Chinese: distressed
Japanese: misfortune, bad luck, evil, disaster, warding off evil
Unihan extended: adversity, difficulty, distress
EDRDG: unlucky; misfortune; bad luck; disaster

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.
