At work we somehow landed on the topic of how many holes a human has, which then evolved into a heated discussion on the classic question of how many holes does a straw have.

I think it’s two, but some people are convinced that it’s one, which I just don’t understand. What are your thoughts?

    Continuing on the innuendo: topologically a vagina is not a hole, but a butthole is.

    You could argue that a hole is an entrance to a wider space. A door or window is a hole to a room. If you want to know the number of holes in a room, you would at least have to include all the doors and windows.

    In this sense, the straw doesn’t have a hole at all.

    Or maybe it is just one hole.
