Elements of「pierced fleshpot」as a hole PIERCED, DRILLED, or BORED into a piece of meat, and perhaps becomes INTEGRATED within it after PENETRATION, resembling a CROSSPIECE extending from the hole. Also, a series of such PENETRATIONS, stringing meat together (串).「Pierced fleshpot, becoming integrated with, meat penetration」may well also depict deflowering a hymen…or a series of deflowerings by a lord.
　An old unit of weight measurement equivalent to approximately 3.75Kg, or about 8 pounds, chunks of flesh pierced and strung together for use as supper meat that could be easily carried for trade, and then raised and lowered into the cooking cauldron perhaps to determine doneness or to carve up portions. Associated with currency, since various forms of meat, dead and alive, were formerly the only items of value that were traded.
　For those who still believe the lower element can only refer to shellfish, PIERCING through the shell of exceptionally large brachiopods will also enable access to the meat of the animal inside the shell. Eight-pound shellfish may have been rather uncommon, even thousands of years ago, so stringing together clam meat chunks while gathering is perhaps more likely. A string of coins (minted deliberately with a hole in the center) or pierced shells forming a necklace, strings of semi-precious stones strings of beads worn by priests, monks, witch doctors, demon exorcists, and other such religious figures all became subsequently associated meanings as currency. Collecting cash, gathering clams, piercing fleshpot meat have been throughout history the integral basis of most organized religions.

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.
