The「bean disease」(swelling nodules) or more likely, the「clitoris disease.」Pustules that form in each POX perhaps appear initially as「beans」within the skin. The poxy「beans」are not actually filled with pus, nor are they edible as are most beans, but rather decaying tissue (smallpox, cowpox, chickenpox, monkeypox, syphilis). Note that the sexually transmitted disease of syphilis is also known in the West as the「great POX」due to the huge gummas that form with the appearance and feel of large poxy pustules from the actions of trillions of tiny corkscrews drilling throughout your bones, internal organs, brain, and flesh.
「Bean」element is associated with sexual behavior (a clitoris in fact), and sexual behavior generally (other than by yourself alone, recognized by sages worldwide as the only true form of「safe sex」) is a major cause for transmitting syphilis, but also transmissible to a newborn passing through the birth canal.
The POX was known worldwide long prior to Christopher Columbus' mistaken landing in what he thought was India, and the so-called「New World」was not the place of origin of the POX. In fact, ol' Chris may have been a bit demented himself from the disease (meaning, he had already contracted syphilis in Europe prior to his voyage), causing in part his disorientation [pun intended]. The term「smallpox」was actually invented by Europeans prior to Columbus as a way to distinguish it from syphilis, and historical records in China and Japan document the disease long prior to 1492. A hidden genome from a 5,500-year-old skeleton revealed that syphilis-like diseases were already evolving in the Americas thousands of years earlier than anyone realized. Note that this glyph may well have been written as「illness from a penis」instead of「illness from clits」but it was not. An old related glyph (疮) incorporates elements of「illness of a person humping anything obliging」such as a defenseless ewe, and meaning「skin sore, chancre」that can be symptomatic of sexually transmitted syphilis, but「illness from being penis-hearted」only means「skin mole, birthmark」…one must surmise that in the minds of the males creating these glyphs, penises were not to blame, only clitorises.
Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: small pox; vaccine
Japanese: smallpox, variola, pockmark
Unihan extended: smallpox
EDRDG: pox; smallpox
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.
