Glyph elements  [ Toggle Font ]

Meanings of elements
SURROUNDING GIRTH, CIRCUMFERENCE, DISTANCE AROUND A CIRCULAR OBJECT with ROD and FLESH SEAM
…or: SLIPPERY SMOOTH SLIDING, SKATE, SLIDING WITH FEET and MISSHAPEN with CLOSED SEAM OF FLESH, CRAFT AND SKILL NECESSARY TO PERFORM A JOB, PLANNING, TRADING ONE THING FOR ANOTHER, SKILLED WORKER WITH WOOD, ARTISAN, MEANS TO DO, HAVING AN IDEA, A PROFESSIONAL
…or: ROD HEAD SLIDING and more SLIDING with STREAM WITHIN SOIL OF SOME SORT, PASS THROUGH MOST DIRECT PATH, DIVA EXPERIENCE, RELIGIOUS SERVICES, RECIPROCAL MOTIONS with LOOSENED FLESH SEAM, SKILLED TALENT NECESSARY TO PERFORM VARIOUS JOBS WITH WOOD, an ARTISAN, THE MEANS TO GET THE JOB DONE, TRADING ONE THING FOR ANOTHER, HAVING AN IDEA
「Slippery surrounding and loosened flesh seam」as the most DIRECT PATH inside.
「Foot motions in shortest path」as the DIAMETER of a circle. FOOTPATHS through the woods were formerly created by animals other than humans, such as modern deer trails walked daily while foraging that, much more often than not, are the shortest or easiest path from one point to the next (although not always in a straight line, in the given surroundings still the shortest and easiest path).「Foot motions within the shaman's religious temple or shrine」inside her cave o' wonders was the end result of the beaten paths and the shortest, easiest method for a religious experience with a divine service provider.
Note that the Japanese word meaning「fool」includes the glyph for「deer, easy pickings」as someone on the footpath to the shaman's temples and shrines of love. Moreover, the English expression of 'remaining on the straight and narrow path' as it referred to finding and adhering to religious righteousness seems to have once meant staying on the beaten path to the shaman's religious house of divas to discover a divine experience, the way most-traveled by clients beating a path to her door, willingly falling into her better-built traps. Be sure to see 徑, and note that the modern replacement of the right element is 圣,「crotch with feces」if there remains any doubt.
FOOT PATHWAY could well be also described as a PATHWAY WITH A FOOT as depicted in erotic Chinese art, and by「motions of feet with short soiled path」: men in dynastic China masturbated by wrapping no-longer-integrated feet around an erect penis:「Bound feet were once considered intensely erotic in Chinese culture. …The process was started before the arch of the foot had a chance to develop fully, usually between the ages of 2 and 5. …Qing Dynasty sex manuals listed 48 different ways of playing with women's [no-longer-integrated] bound feet」(after removing the binding cloths, of course)

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.
