Then again, gonorrheal gleet is generally the same color as turquoise, complete with the blood-colored veins and marbling. If a king had that oozing out and covering his gems, stones, scrotal sac, then perhaps he might become somewhat agitated. In any case, both the involuntary and continuous discharge of gleet and the geological processes that formed turquoise seem highly similar: precipitating while lining cavities and fractures within the surrounding rocks.
Or, BLUE BALLS, a「physical condition of painful testicles」:「Blue balls is a slang term for the condition of temporary fluid congestion (vasocongestion) in the testicles and prostate region, accompanied by acute testicular pain, or a prolonged dull aching pain emanating from the prostate, caused by prolonged and unsatisfied sexual arousal in the human male. …Some urologists call the condition 'epididymal hypertension.' 」

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.

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?

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,

This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
