Meanings of elements

WIDESPREAD BEHAVIOR OF HUMANS, PALMING ERECTION with HAND FIRMLY GRASPING IN TWISTING MOTIONS, SCREWING BY HAND, INSCRIBE, FOLLOWING THE RULE OF LAW with REAMING MEAT, SOMETHING ONE MUST DO

Depiction of what was COMMONPLACE as a result of cave o' wonder visits, a「firm grasp with reaming bougie in meat with emphasis on rod erection, in use as something one must do」perhaps EMPLOYING the USE of tools as part of the ORDINARILY performed medical procedure, in「orifices between spread legs」or「trained hands between legs」as something that happened all the time and everywhere, ORDINARY. Scholars suggest the meaning as menial slave labor, certainly true as being employed and getting one's hands and face dirty while doing a task that no one enjoyed: mincing live, raw meat at the head of a prick.
　Perhaps also depicting「in the caves of wonder」「government authority」「in use, now employed」as the police brute squad of enforcers EMPLOYED to inspect and eject anyone in need of pipe cleaning, but who could be bribed, paid off to allow a sick individual to escape the torturous procedures, only for that person eventually to pay the price again to the bacteria later, with painful screaming and losing his life: inescapable, invariably, without fail, a certainty (必).

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.
