Two nuns are in a bath.
The first nun asks the other, “Where’s the soap?”
The other replies, “It does, doesn’t it?”
The joke “Two nuns in a bath” hinges on a double entendre, which is a word or phrase that has two interpretations, one of which is often risqué or suggestive. In this joke, the ambiguity arises from the phrase “Where’s the soap?” The second nun’s response, “It does, doesn’t it?” implies that there’s an alternate way to interpret the first nun’s statement. The “inappropriate action” alluded to is the idea that the soap might be “wearing away” or diminishing in size due to being used for some sort of friction or rubbing. The joke plays on the unexpected and potentially risqué behavior of characters (nuns) who are typically associated with piety and innocence. The humor is in the implied mischief and the audience’s realization of the double entendre.
