…or: METAL, PERSON in THRUSTING DOWNWARD STANCE and GAPING, PERSON'S HEAD AND NECK IN DANGER, PERSON with ROLLING HEAD
This glyph appears to be another stab by the sages at the royals. Left elements meaning「metal」are「person taking stance with downward thrusting motions of penis」with「gaping deficiencies, headless.」Depicts「gaping」(literally, a「rolling human head」) at the site of「gold」worn by ROYALS. Intelligent kings (who else had gold?) did not often display their gold hoards openly, as this behavior leads to various actions that can separate the king from his gold hoards, so only limited amount at one time was flaunted.
 「Metal causing gaping neck」and「rolling human heads, beheadings」for the slightest perceived infraction of the rules, or, during the action of the sport of kings, a playful pastime only indulged in by ROYALTY as sort of a trademark of those immune from legal prosecution with a「mandate from heaven」to rule low-class human maggots in almost any manner they wished (「OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!」), and an activity that commanded RESPECT and AWE from nearby serfs, and ADMIRATION from other nobles for an especially skillful neck slash or clean head severance and the ensuing rolling spin as the metallic wheel rims of a royal's chariot severed the head a serf forced to lie across the roadbed…bravo, your highness.

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.
