A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

If each human has 7/8 openings . Two humans kissing have 14-16 openings .. you basically have a bagpipe!
Update: 12-14 available openings.. we lose two for the kissing.
Maybe it's because I haven't had coffee yet, but could you do the math for me? 12-14 doesn't seem right.
Male 7: 1 mouth, 2 nostrils, 2 ears, 1 anus, 1 urethra
Female 8: 1 mouth, 2 nostrils, 2 ears, 1 anus, 1 urethra, 1 vagina
Male/Male Kissing : 7+7-2: 12 openings
Male/Female Kissing: 7+8-2: 13 openings
Female/Female Kissing: 8+8-2: 14 openings
Got it. I thought you meant 12-14 openings each, and I was arguing semantics to myself about what could possibly be considered "openings" to make the number that big.
How was the coffee?
Good, thank you.
But if we are going by topology logic the vagina isn't a true hole it's caped by the womb init so it's at most a cave
Ears terminate at the eardrum
Urethra terminates at the bladder.
There's a tube connecting your ears to your mouth and urine has to make it from your digestion to bladder
Your digestive tract isn't connected to your bladder with a tube or anything. Any liquid that gets to the bladder went through the kidney first
Vagina probably wouldn't be considered a hole but a cleft in this situation. Everything else in that list is connected to the digestive system in some way but not the vagina.
What part do nostrils and ears play in the digestive system?
The ears are connected to the throat via the Eustachian tubes. Those tubes are the reason why you can swallow and equalize the pressure in your ears when you are diving or in an airplane. Noses are connected via the sinus cavities.
The urethra is still separate from the digestive system though.
I put liquid into my body.
My body digests this liquid.
My kidneys digest it into pee.
Pee comes out my urethra
Done and dusted
Yes, but there's no single "tube" from your intestines to your kidneys. Your intestines absorb the liquid and then send it through a branching network of tubes which eventually end up at the kidneys.
Wrong, pee is stored in the balls.
Here's some trivia: People who don't have the sublingual frenulum can, with some practice, reach their tongues to the nasal cavity and directly touch the back side entrance of both the nasal tubes (choanas) and eustachian tubes (auditory, surrounded by the bony cushion).
You're welcome.
I know it shouldn't be, but that's nightmare fuel right there
Most force feeding torture is done via a tube inserted into the nostril, which goes all the way down to the stomach.
Topologically speaking, a vagina is, indeed, not a hole.
Good point
/c/theydidthemath ?
It's seven up to infinite, really. Topologically the number of holes increases if you have some certain features in your nasal cavities or have additional puncta
Well, if you count the pores, too, there's many many holes, and if you get everyone on Earth to put one of their holes on one or more of someone else's holes, there's many many many holes.
