「Using hands on fleshpot orifice」might just burn one's fingers as INJURED, MARRED, SCARRED, DAMAGED.
Lower-right element is「cauldron, fleshpot」perhaps meaning here to gather around for a group activity, with an「orifice」above or on the cauldron as the place from which to extract seething hot meat, or, the literal orifices of a young service provider made available while bound and tied securely to a three-legged cauldron, meaning「member(s), group activity.」Perhaps the English expression regarding one's「member」as an organ of a human or animal body is related to this Chinese glyph, and「using hands on one's own member」reflects MISSING OUT DESPITE WANTING TO DO an activity within a group.
「Use hands with a member」to toss a person out and excommunicate him or her from the further activities of the members' club. Means LOSING due to a MISTAKE, ERROR, or DAMAGE, a SLIP, FAILURE. Also depicting SCARS and MARS as perhaps the reason for disfellowshipping a former member, someone who, due to uncontrolled overexcitement, INJURED, MARRED, SCARRED, DAMAGED the「orifice on a fleshpot」and therefore diminished the experiences of other members who had been patiently waiting their turn in line but MISSED OUT DESPITE WANTING TO DO.
「Using one's hands」with an「orifice of a fleshpot」may be what caused the INJURY, IMPAIRMENT perhaps because of a SLIP-UP due to dirty, untrimmed fingernails, with the point being emphasized here that there was no reason to use one's hands in the first place, since the subject was bound and tied anyway…WASTEFUL. Chinese references to sarcasm and derision may relate to a member who could use nothing but「hands on his or her member.」Perhaps「hand use on fleshpot orifice」was all that was possible due to a gravely infected condition…after LOSING A PART?

External source definitions …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may include extended definitions, euphemisms, and mnemonics)
Chinese: to decrease; to lose; to damage; to harm; (coll.) to speak sarcastically; to deride; caustic; mean; one of the 64 trigrams of the Book of Changes (old)
Japanese EDRDG: damage, loss, disadvantage, hurt, injure
Unihan extended: diminish; impair; injure

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.
