"0.
A hole has to have a bottom I would assume ?? 
So is it a tunnel?
Fuck knows. Way to early for this mind fuck  "
I know. Feel like I should be lay down in a park with Goodie and Ste smoking.

Someone recently told me that there are different types of holes (we were talking absolute filth and then it evolved, as it always does).
Anyway!
The (1) hole* in that of a straw, would be a 'through hole'.
Other holes are available..never forget that |

"One hole, and pair of pants/knickers has two
What if they are crotchless ?
I should have included a disclaimer
That makes it 3, especially as it's functional  "
Surely it's 4? One for each leg, one for the torso and one if they're crotchless. |

"Technically a hole is an opening so a stra has two holes and one interconnecting tube between both holes.
2 holes, 1 tube 
This."
Nah 2 is the WORST possible answer. A doughnut doesn't have 2, and when would one become the other? |

I'm amazed neither of you can count to three... crotchless would be 4 holes. If they are technically "holes"... "
Flatten out a pair and count them |

"One hole, and pair of pants/knickers has two
but but i put my waist in one and a leg in the other ... what am i doing with my other leg??? "

Didn't see this post. I agree.
Topologically "
I'm toying with the idea of the trousers only having one hole also.
I need to think about it. As the waist is shared........ isn't it. |

"Depends if youre sticking it up someone's bumhole, after someone else has done the dirty"
Sticking a straw up some ones bum hole after doing the dirty.....?   |

Because a doughnut doesn't have a joining tube, just two radiused adjoining openings with no parallel running walls between them...the hole is the meeting point between the two radii. |

Shared? when did you start drinking? |

I think of it as how many routes are available to get from one side to the other. Or the number of openings minus one |

Most ring doughnuts have a flat area inside most of the time. The better example was a metal ring though of course... How rounded does the internal surface have to be for it to only be one hole?
If it's a hole at all... |

But there are 3 ways to go between two different holes if there are three holes. |

When I was 15. |

"I look at it like this: If I pick up a straw, I examine it to decide which hole I want to suck out of.
Ergo, there must be 2 holes."
that's 2 ends.
Which end do you suck out of...... the hole is 1. |

If viewing the trousers as three separate cylinders I'd agree somewhat...... but a complete pair of trousers has only two routes.... with the waist being a shared entrance or exit.....
2 holes.
I've parked this idea a while. I'm considering a buttoned shirt. Both fastened and unfastened. |

If you put your finger through a doughnut there is only one place it can come out, so that's one hole. For pants, put your leg through and there are 2 places it can come out. If you drill a hole through a wall, that's an opening on each side but only one hole |

So....hang on...if something is a tube it is only one hole? With two entrances? That right?
So mouth to bum is one tube. So only one hole? Is that right? |

With multiple entrances and exits along the way |

2 holes, 1 tube "
I think I've seen that one before  |

Most ring doughnuts have a flat area inside most of the time. The better example was a metal ring though of course... How rounded does the internal surface have to be for it to only be one hole?
If it's a hole at all..."
So let's consider the hole as being 10mm in diameter, as an engineer I would say that if the length of the inner surface between two holes was larger than the two adjoining holes at say 20mm the there is a connecting tube between them so that would make 2 holes.
If the connecting tube was less than the diameter of the opening adjoining holes then the tube doesn't exist therefore there is one hole.
Also consider how the hole(s) were made.
Take a block of wood, drill a blind hole from one side and then do the same from the other opposing side until you breach the first hole thus forming a through hole/opening. You have drilled two separate holes therefore that cylinder inside the block you have opened up has two holes.
You could also drill it from one side all the way through and have a valid claim it is one hole.
Both arguments therefore must have merit that it is one hole and also two holes depending on both method of making said hole/tube and from your viewpoint either mathematically or practically.
P.s. pure mathematics has a straw worked out topologically as being one hole |

"The moral of the story.....dont ask an engineer this question as you'll do their head in for the rest of the day
I hate you very much now OP lol "
I'm good at that.
So I think 1 is the 2nd best answer. I think I prefer 0 though, as I think, as per your example, you need to create a hole for it to be a hole. You need to remove something, and nothing is removed from a straw. If you have a hula hoop and disconnect it so it's a big c, you can't surely say you've destroyed a hole. You've broken the ring, but the hole was never there in the first place.
Also from your example though, that logic mostly requires you to know how the thing was made... which tbh gets a bit far fetched. But still zero holes for me I think. |

I'd say one. The length of the straight tube is irrelevant, after all, you wouldn't holepunch a piece of paper, turn it over and say it had two holes would you? |

this has burst my brain haha i would definitely have said a hula hoop had a hole |

I guess a straw can be described as a thin tunnel, or tube maybe? More tunnel as it has an entry and exit so not sure the two hole theory fits...
One long hole I guess

This needs to be discussed over a lot of very strong beers sat in a pub I reckon as getting to the bottom of this hole could take a while
Oh and you can form a tube from a flat sheet which has a hole at each end so you can create a hole without punchong the actual hole itself out of a block of material.....think on that one while you go to the bar and work out what your response is hahaaa |

From a mathematical point of view
For a surface with boundary, such as a straw with its two boundary circles, each cut must begin and end on a boundary. So, according to Riemann, because a straw can be cut only once — from end to end — it has exactly one hole.
Or
The mathematically correct answer is 1 hole. A straw is topologically the product of a circle, which has 1 hole, and an interval, which has 0 holes
See even they can’t agree |

"Technically a hole is an opening so a stra has two holes and one interconnecting tube between both holes.
2 holes, 1 tube
2 Holes, 1 Tube - sounds like the sequel to 2 Girls, 1 Cup 2"
If you like that then you'll love 1 guy 1 jar and yes it only involves one hole  |

I think it has to be discussed in relation to the proportions of the object and length between the openings. If the same hole was in a huge block of concrete you would call it a hole but we would probably not say that the mouth and anus were the same hole despite being connected. |

This is definitely what an engineer would say!
Are all the holes available? |

I concur... One
Oh.. Unless it's paper then it has loads of micro pores... Do they count as holes
Hmmmm I might revise my answer... Either one or feckin hundreds |
