Alternatively,「screwing, plug orifice, rotate」with「two short legs」or「twice loose and dripping」also indicates a TUMBLE, ROLL in the hay, GYRATING, REVOLVING ACTION of two ruts in night soil. One way or another, it appears the glyph is closely related to ruts in soil and rutting in soil, an apparent coincidence of English terms that is not actually coincidental in the least.
「Three screwings in line for orifice with turbid-flaccid loose dripping stench」in a「military vehicle with intercourse」「many screwing in orifice with [army] dogs howling moaning and screaming」certainly sounds a bit like a MEAT WAGON used as a station for 'comfort women' in ROTATION, GYRATING, REVOLVING SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS, THROW DOWN, TUMBLE, FLAILING, ALTERED MEANING, REPEATED TRANSACTIONS, A TURN, A SHIFT and so on.
「Billowing vapor」element some suggest is a remnant of a「rotating arm」protruding from a drop spindle of a loom. Formerly in Chinese (轉), right element of「spinning concentrated」with the top element of a spinning drop spindle of a loom over「taking a pulse with squeezing careful hands, measured.」…nonetheless, the glyph also means「screwing, plugging orifice, and then again, after being grabbed by one's father in a rutting action」so you need to decide for yourself what it refers to. The drop spindle gathers multiple hanging or dropped single silk fibers. A single silk fiber from one cocoon averages 1,000 meters in length (3/5 of a mile), a very long, thin, strong fiber. The mass of cocoons GYRATES and TUMBLES over and over as the fibers are unwound, making them look as if the caterpillar within each cocoon were still alive. Fibers collected by the extended arm and spun into a single thicker thread with a ROTATING MOTION. Clouds are also said to「roll in, tumble」at times due to the billowing motion of the gases. These latter suggestions admittedly require a greater leap of inductive logic than simply grabbing and rutting twice, causing「billowing vapors of a screwing short leg.」

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.
