kěn

old variant of 肯[ken3]

to agree; to consent; to be willing to

stop (止) + flesh (⺼) = willing to give your body to it

To willingly stop and offer your flesh — your body committing fully — captures the sense of genuine consent. The image is one of wholehearted, physical agreement, not reluctant compliance.
