Meaning to MAINTAIN PUBLIC ORDER by using payoffs as tribute wealth to keep external brigands or the central government from further harassing a fief, with REGULAR PAYMENTS OF CASH, or grain, or entry into the brothels, or all of the above. Right element is the modern replacement for an older glyph meaning「merciless」that used elements of「dog erection in orifice of the king」in reference to a conquering invader's abuse of a local dignitary that publicly「slips」his penile shaft into the local lord's back orifice and/or in his concubines in an attempt to display total dominance and cause irreparable humiliation (armies invading in China were referred to as「dogs」).「Grain for shafting, grain missed」「grain slipped」to brigands as a bribe offered instead of literal shafting, paid as tribute to the conquering shafters as a REGULAR PAYMENT thereafter, perhaps in an effort to prevent any repeat performances.「Harvested grain that slipped away」refers to that distributed by a lord to all the various conquerors as their STIPENDS, later extending to the regular payments as SALARIES to the lord's own officers. Sometimes these payments were extortion payoffs to discourage the lord's employed brigands or brute squad from further harassing a fief in a 'shakedown' of the lord, not unlike modern payoffs for various reasons to human authority figures.
Alternatively, MAINTAINING THE SOCIAL, PUBLIC ORDER may have more to do with everyday life of everyday serfs rather than payoffs to other lords, chieftains, or to the emperor.「Seed at tip of ripe stalk」with「slipped, error when shafting」might have all to do with imposing restrictions on sexual services providers during pandemics of sexually transmitted disease, when「gonorrhea missing」was the attempted norm to achieve SOCIAL CALM. Society remains calm and not rebellious when serfs are satisfied,「repeatedly bobbing head of hard adult woody with sliding」that entails REGULAR PAYMENTS to the brothel proprietresses, inspection fees, taxes and shakedowns, government bribes, and so on, not to mention regular visits to the clinic for a bougie reaming to open the「dammed flow of head.」With「gonorrhea missing」folks can continue working to obtain REGULAR PAYMENTS of SALARY.

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.
