Can we settle this: how many holes does a straw have?

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?

I'd say 3, not thinking of pockets or any of that. So I guess 1.5 holes per pant?

…now, if you cut off one trouser leg, how many holes does that have?
