The human body has 7 holes
50 cent had 12 briefly.
Pretty sure 7+9 is 16.
I don’t follow in the dogma of the ears and nose, since you can’t fuck them…
since you can’t fuck them.
As opposed to the bullet holes then?
Exactly! You’re getting it now.
That’s quitter talk.

I would argue that being part of a centipede doesn’t reduce the number of holes, it just creates a more scenic route to the outside.

Everyone’s?
Probably not everyone’s, but I’d be willing to bet that the total number of exceptions to the rule either greater or fewer than pretty nearly cancel each other out, on average.
- Mouth
- Left nostril
- Right nostril
- Left ear
- Right ear
- Urethra
- Anus
Am I losing my mind or did everyone here forget that roughly half the population of the planet also has a vagina (8)?
Urethra opening and vaginal opening are both inside the human body. There is only one opening in the front, male or female. Females have labia minora/majora. Males have urinary meatus.
TIL
That is a fair point.
a vagina alone has 6, so this is hardly accurate.
No, in topology those are pretty much just indents (I.E irrelevant)
For a hole to be considered a hole, it has to go through an object.
see, this is why everyone hates topology and their silly yet weirdly true rules.
Ponders a klein vagina…
Booooo. We all know what a hole is, don’t bring topology into this. I’ll give you a plate for your drinks at my house if you pull this silliness.
Wait, do you consider cups to be portable holes for liquids?
If you don’t see the difference between a cup and a plate because they’re the same topologically then I’m gonna use them interchangeably around you.
Of course they are different. But they aren’t holes lol.
I’m not going to stand for this hole trutherism. If you take a shovel and dig, you have made a hole. We have called that a hole forever. Usage dictates meaning.
You will need to put a handle under the plate.
Then I’m fine.
Wait… do holes that meet up with other holes count as separate holes? The nostrils meet up with the mouth hole but then combined they go through to the anus. Do those count as three distinct holes, since looking at each of them individually they would count as a hole? Or would there be one hole with… four openings?
ETA: I have more questions. Do all the openings need to be open to still be considered a hole? Is it only a hole if all my sphincters are open and my mouth is open? If I’m getting choked but my mouth is open and I’m trying to breathe, does my mouth to nostrils count as a hole themselves? Do my nostrils automatically count as a hole as long as one or both isn’t stuffed up?

Yep, they are considered separate holes. So for example. “Mouth to the ass” is one hole and the two nostrils add two holes to the total.

I don’t think it really matters how big the hole is so as long as the opening isn’t fused maybe it still counts as a hole. But really, I think whenever your mouth is open or not is out of scope for topology.
I’m really curious how you got that number? I guess eye sockets aren’t counted, as topologically with how many of the tubes connect, it’s probably something weird.
Mouth/anus is just one hole since humans are doughnut shaped.
So we are really just a big cup?
donut != cup

In topography a donut and a cup are equivalent shapes.
cup != mug
You were making me doubting my english for a moment there. But no, a quick google search confirmed that a cup, like in a cup of coffee, is totally valid for my statement.
4 lacrimal ducts, 2 nostrils, 1 mouth and 1 anus = 8 interconnected holes. Subtract 1 (because a proper donut hole needs both an entrance and an exit) and you get 7.
I guess it could be argued that women have an extra hole, as there is a passage through each fallopian tube into the pelvic cavity.

Are you interested in a career in HR? Because I have a large staff which needs to be managed
All y’all are some vanilla prudes, missing out on the lacrimal ducts.
11 hole action or GTFO.
Where are the other two?
4 lacrimal ducts converge into 2 nasolacrimal ducts.
Build of you to assume I have human anatomy.
How many positions are available?
Im pretty sure the human body has more than three holes
Yeah but this is why we don’t ask freaky-ass topologists to define humans.
“openings”
It said so in the Help Wanted ad you placed.
“Wow, three whole openings!”
That is an unusually low number, but I’m certain we can work something out.
I never really found out what the third was for.
Sex. They’re all for sex.
