We're apes though.
Great ones even!
Apes are monkeys, in the same sense that humans are apes.
I'm not entirely sure that statement is correct, but it's been a while since I took any anthropology courses...
Edit: I was wrong and remembered the tree incorrectly.
Family tree of primates. As you can see, old world monkeys and new world monkeys share their last common ancestor with the apes. That means that phylogenetically, that if they are both monkeys, then so are all the apes.
You are factually correct, the best kind of correct!
It is correct. I've been corrected on this before and did the research to discover I was wrong. Humans are Monkeys.
Yeah, looks like I was mistaken.
Good on you for realizing it. It was difficult for me to admit I was wrong when it happened to me as well, so I feel your confusion/pain :)
Nothing wrong with learning.
We're old world monkeys a little more specifically, you can tell partly by our lack of tails
We're Grapes
Grape apes?
Grape vapes?
