Meanings of elements

DRIPPING with ONE ON EACH SIDE
…or: CONGEALING with FROTTAGE DOCKING
…or: STIFF, COLD and TWO FACING OFF, RECIPROCATE

「Cold and one on each side」as PERKY…or in Chinese,「cold and hardening」(see 冴「cold with protrusions」) refers to SEEING CLEARLY, VIVID, DISCERNING WITH CLARITY what is as plain as the nose on one's face: brisk, cold temperatures cause involuntary nipple erection in both males and females, cold protuberances…nobody seems to know exactly why, but everyone knows it's true:
　「Low temperatures stimulate the tiny muscles attached to your hair follicles, which cause the hairs to stand on end. In other, hairier mammals, this process, known as the pilomotor reflex, can produce a layer of insulation. In humans, it seems to be vestigial. The areolae (the colored areas surrounding the nipples) also have smooth muscle cells that contract when stimulated, and cold weather can make the skin pucker inward while the nipples stick out. The squeezing of these muscles may also lead to increased protrusion of the Montgomery glands—the little bumps around the nipples that secrete fluid to facilitate breast-feeding. (Both men and women have Montgomery glands. Under the right circumstances, men can even lactate.) Few studies have been done on why the areolae, in particular, might be reactive to the cold.」

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: congealed; frozen
Japanese: clearness, clarity, skillfulness, to be clear, to be bright, to be vivid, to be crisp, to be clear-headed, to be alert, to be on the ball, to be wide awake, to look upbeat, to be perky, to be cheerful, to master, to excel at, to cleanly execute, to be satisfying, to become frigid, to become intensely cold
Unihan extended: freezing; stopped up, closed off
EDRDG: freeze; be cold; be clear; attain skill

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.
