Meanings of elements
REPEATED BOBBING HEAD ERECT and SCREWING
…or: A THOUSAND SCREWINGS
…or: REPEATED BOBBING WITH TWO HANDS
Suggests what occurs after「a thousand screwings」or「repeatedly bobbing head, screwings with erection」to be a PROMOTION, a RISE IN RANK among one's peers. Note that one thousand screwings by a service provider of short-term rentals in a brothel could be racked up in hardly no time at all, perhaps less than a year depending on the busy seasons, and would therefore enable sufficient experience/expertise as a MEASURED BOX (please pardon the vernacular there). See as「tonguing mouth promoted」likely for the same reasons.
 「Erection head twisting, screwing.」.or,「in two hands」describes one process for RAISING, RISING the tool, a procedure common among anyone CAGED IN A PRISON CELL, either as an inmate jailbird or as a service provider chick owned by a shaman, both being caged or jailed 'birds' of different sorts, COOPED UP in CELLS ON A GRID.
 「Repeated bobbing head」in「two hands」or「erection screwing」noting that the「repeat」element is seen on one side only, resulting in an action of LIFTING, RAISING up, or HOISTING contents from a larger quantity in a MEASURED BOX, and then leveling the commodity by sliding a strickle across the top of the box with the other hand, perhaps. A UNIT OF MEASURE for grain or other commodities, shaped in a SQUARE WOODEN BOX, with a volume of 1.8 liters, or roughly one-half gallon that is about the size of one chicken. This is the size measure for selling bottled alcoholic beverages in Japan, a rather large bottle normally requiring「two hands」for pouring that may result in「repeatedly bobbing heads.」
 In China, this same element appears as and refers to birds kept in a coop, with each using a MEASURED BOX for nesting. Each box is measured to be nearly the same size as all the other boxes to avoid battles among the birds for the best boxes. CELL or GRID also refers to bird coops, as a wooden pole structure shaped as cells or a grid used for roosting. Birds compete every day and night to be raised in a position higher than the other birds:
 「By instinct, chickens want to roost ('go to bed') in the highest point available, and be gathered together in a group for protection and warmth while they sleep. Your chickens will be happier animals if you play to their instincts when you are designing their living space. If you were to place multiple roosts inside your coop with some higher than others, they may fight to get the highest ('best') spots: to avoid this, you keep the roost at all the same level. …A chicken roost is a very simple board…or a wooden clothes rod like you would put in a closet, or even a thick tree branch that is about [2-3 inches in diameter].」

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.
