Normally when making old style books that were long scrolls, two wooden shafts were normally needed, one on each end of the scroll and operated in pairs, with one side as a「woody shaft rod raised inserted into hole of skin.」As one shaft unrolled the parchment or vellum (skins), or cloth () to reveal the text, the other shaft acted as the take-up spool to wind the portion that had been seen already. The two shafts revealing a moving small portion of the text was a VIEWING FRAME, later applied to MOVING PICTURE FRAMES that are now simply called「movies.」The「loincloth of a chaste female」would of course have made the best material for writing upon, since it would have likely had the least amount of permanent staining, being only ONE that was never paired yet with a woody shaft, the other member of the old book set of materials.

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: frame; one of a pair (scrolls); picture
Unihan extended: picture, scroll; one of pair of
EDRDG: making books or scrolls

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.
