Meanings of elements

LORD, COMMANDER with VILLAGE
…or: ORIFICE with HUMAN AUTHORITY FIGURES and FRONT VIEW OF NAKED GENITALIA

Collection of「villages, scorpion burrow-like pit holes」under the control of a「feudal lord」in the COUNTRYSIDE, or a COUNTY, RURAL DISTRICT. In China and most elsewhere in Asia a few thousand years ago, human beings commonly lived in pit holes (yaodong), not homes such as there are today.
In English also, 'county' derives from a retinue or gaggle of peasant girls flashing themselves and chasing after a lord to gain his attention in the attempt to improve their lot in life by the freely-offered use of bodily orifices, literally referred to as 'cunties' in old English (not a joke), today referred to as groupies chasing after musicians, politicians, actors, other wealthy folks and whatnot for the same reason…perhaps CUNTIES was a bit too obvious? a collection of a「count's or earl's vaginas」as a place with rural females desiring to improve their lot in life by flashing and luring the attention of the lord passing by, all easy pickings for an aristocrat.
Many rural county, countryside areas in England still use 'cunte' in the place name, a word that invoked only positive connotations 500 years ago, naturally as it should connote, being the place of one's birth from a mother and pleasantness generally. The word at that time was not considered vulgar in the least (…how society and language change). Just what is the English pronunciation of「country」again, and why? not a coincidence—left element (君) is「government representative with legal authority to ream orifices at will」and right element was (邑)「orifice with penis in vulva, the merchandise, villages, scorpion tail burrowing into soil pit holes」and so on (the curious might research「divine right of kings」for more details as how this same concept was embraced in the West).

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.
