That is either out of context or Too Much Information (TMI)

I see no need to apologize; it kind of fit with the topic at hand, ironically...

She couldn’t help the fact that she looked like a monkey.

Saudi men can’t differentiate between a woman and a monkey anyway because they seldom see the women un-covered.

More than one element of this story doesn’t sound right. Who knew they had monkeys and fruit trees (aside from date palms, of course) in Saudi Arabia?

saudi “hunter” sees woman in a tree, shoots her and claims he thought she was a monkey.

That about sums up how women are treated in that islamic rat’s nest.

I think perhaps their women resemble monkeys.

Reminds me of that line in the Pink Panther about it not being his monkey.

“I am just an artiste - ze monkey, he is ze businessman.”

(Or ar you thinking of the Innkeeper’s “Zat is NOT my dog.”)
