Meanings of elements
WOOD, WOODY STALK in BED, EAGER TO KNOW, CURIOUS, NOSTALGIA
…or: emphasis on ROD with ERECTION and CANNABIS, HEMP, RISING LIBIDO, APPETITE INCREASE
…or: CAVE with many CANNABIS, HEMP PLANTS
[Elements vary by font and positioning] as「cavern」may have been applicable to indicate that this herb was generally used only within and around the vicinity of the home cavern. Bound hemp plants were set fire as torches (蒸). Plants were not *grown* inside, obviously, since The Man wasn't there yet, high-intensity grow lights had no reliable power source, and anyway plants could be freely cultivated outdoors, although hemp grew wildly and prolifically all over the place. Other glyphs reveal that bonfires of smoky cannabis heaps were burned inside caverns (深)…used to kick off parties and bonobo-style orgies?
When the hemp, herb elements are used without「cavern」included (𣏟), the meaning often becomes「can't find my way home, perplexed by the trail.」In traditional fonts, the two internal elements are not「tree」but different characters meaning「herbal plants, et cetera, et cetera」referring to the very long and strong fibers hemp stalks produce, or enduring very long waits. This character depicted whatever is used to make the long threads of durable, fine cloth and for rope: HEMP threads can be two meters in length (cotton fibers maybe two centimeters at most) and hemp cloth is durable, lasting literally ten times as long as any other natural textile. Sometimes drawn without the topmost「marker」stroke to mean a long, hanging hemp cloth (as fine drapery?).
「Emphasis on rod in reciprocal motions with woody and woody again」until overstimulation causes lack of response, lack of feeling, NUMBNESS. On the other hand,「woody in bed」may refer to elevated libido inspired by CANNABIS.

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.
