A「tongue made from metal」…tongues can stab and penetrate orifices, and form words that can also hook and penetrate even worse, a gaffe. The metal tongue tip of a GAFF, HARPOON, FISHING SPEAR. Note that when ingesting fishes in Asia, the entire body of the animal is often prepared without the removal of any viscera (it is most tasty), hence the「ingestion of feces」in small amounts will frequently, if not always, occur.「Using one's tongue skillfully downward thrusting to spear into fishy meat, easy and often penetration tonguing orifices, fucking with one's tongue, thousand licks digging with metal-hard tongue」and so on needs no explanation most likely, and moreover, the「ingestion of feces」in small amounts will frequently, if not always, occur as well.

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.
