This question relies on outdated/oversimplified classical categorization. All macaques and baboons are monkeys, including the tailless Barbary macaque. Broadly, the primary difference between monkeys and apes actually lies in the skeletal structure of the shoulders and arms/forelegs. However, since no classification method completely and accurately separates monkeys from apes, modern biologists do not claim that there is any specific distinction between the two groups of primates.

Sweet Senior, first of all, it's opposable not disposable. Secondly, man (meaning HUman) is the ONLY person, period. Just saying.
