Meanings of elements

NERVOUS, FEARFUL with ROD and FORCED, PROSTRATE WHACKING
…or: RELAXED, AT EASE with HEART, SPEWING PENIS
…or: EXTREME SPEWING PENIS
…or: EXTREMELY FELT in MIND, HEART, SOUL

Contrary meanings listed in external sources:「nervous and fearful but prostrate and whacking rod, spread feet」perhaps in order to try and relax, or, to take one's mind off the immediate problem while one still can.「Relaxed with penis spewing」「extreme penis spewing」as someone who consequently caught a dose of the clap,「extremely spewing of infected penis, feeling it all, thinking in one's heart and soul」now causing PENSIVE CONTEMPLATION about his plight and state of affairs, knowing that he is simply waiting to die with a RESIGNATION OF HELPLESSNESS.
A「person too relaxed, at ease about penis spewing」as SELF-DECEPTION, FALSE ASSURANCE in the hope that everything will turn out O.K…. Becoming SELF-COMPOSED, UNHURRIED, NO LONGER CARING after the LONG AND DRAWN OUT CONTINUATION of the infection and DOING NOTHING BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE about it.
To SWING suggests one's changing mood from PENSIVE to RESIGNATION and back again, back and forth, back and forth.

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.
