as far as primates are concerned
monkeys are at a lower evolutionary stage than apes. humans are apes.
everyone feeling offended by "monkey" is just stupid/uneducated/a wanking cunt.
I vote for renaming to "apepox" then, AND ONLY THEN EXCLAMATION MARK, is anybody of the species homo sapiens allowed to ...
as if I care lol

Monkey is a really weird term - I had a very long-winded discussion about it, which at least resulted in me learning about paraphyletic grouping, and thence an amazing podcast called "No Such Thing as a Fish".

Apparently monkey is an offensive term for black people.
I only found out that my Nan had been unjustly racially abusing me for years when Primark stopped selling that t-shirt.

Apparently, 'Eggplant' also has racist connotations.
Looking forward to that bout of social media outrage.
