An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. First guy orders a beer. Every other guy orders half the amount of beer as the guy before him. The bartender, fed up, says just order two beers!

Different numbers of holes though, gotta take homeomorphism into account.

I don't think women have a different number holes topographically speaking.

The topologist can't tell his coffee cup from his doughnut.

Generally, biologically speaking:

Men have a urethra and an anus.

Women have a urethra, and anus, and a vagina.

Presumably, discounting mutations, birth defects, serious injuries, etc, most people have the same number of uh... head/face holes.

...

Allowing for rarer cases:

Also... intersex people exist... there have been at least a few recorded instances of duplicate and/or forking dongs...

And I guess we could also consider varying kinds of conjoined twins.

...

Also also, we could argue about whether milk producing mammaries constitute a topological 'hole'.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeomorphism

Vaginas, milk ducts, pores, etc in a topological sense, are not holes, just dents, like the recepticle part of a cup with a handle.

I mentioned noses and ears before deleting them, because the ENT region is really complicated for a non topologist/biologist to be able to tell if they can be interpreted as holes or not. Luckily for me in this discussion the system is identical for men and women.

Derp.

Looks like I need to complexify the manifolds of my own brain, haha!

Wait, the tear ducts count... but the eyesocket itself doesn't?

Huh.

I would have intuitively thought the hole the optic nerve goes through counts, but I guess thats not really a uh, topologically true hole, as its mostly just a void in your skull.

I think their point was that the hole has to go all the way though for it to count topologically

The vagina ends at the uterus, and milk ducts don't go all the way through either

Urethra doesn't go anywhere either except for bladder, then nephrons (kidneys)...

Something similar applies to ears, right? And nose... But,

Also, what about the pores in my skin? :O

The problem is the nostrils.if it was just an indentation into the lungs, it's one hole: digestive tract.

The nostrils divide the breathing passage into two, then join up again. From the air to the lungs is an indentation, but does the tissue separating the nostrils create two separate complete topographic holes?

Same for the ears; where do they join in on this system? Idfk, I'm not a doctor or a topologist

Bro why you trippin'?

All my homies be constantly morphin' into better, more flexible and robust versions of themselves.

Are you just gonna sit there like an undergrad and clumsily perform a naive mapping of my topological space, or are you gonna use your brain a bit, and exhaustively define a continuous homeomorphic equation to radically transform me into whatever shape you want?

If you can make the key, you can unlock me, and then I can map to whatever you want me to be >:D

You have posted so many of my favourite memes on Lemmy. Absolutely top tier shitposting 😭

I had to look through their profile after you said that and GOD DAMN, they posted the ones I found most memorable!

We don't deserve you!

I call BS unless their dancers demonstrate that they can at least pass a high school algebra test.

Believe it or not, mathematics majors who didn't put "engineer" on their resume. :(

(This is a joke not meant to insult anybody, aside from whomever is responsible for this "degree market value" idea.)
