  ? in many species males will play with other males’ penises. So why are chimps the original bros?

  A swing and a miss.

  Maybe the joke was, they are the ones that seems closest to the homo species but are still apes?

  Though I think there are other apes that are genetically closer to homo sapiens.

  This showerthought looked queerphobic to me before I came to the conclusion about its possible meaning. It’s still seems - maybe unconsciously - insensitive to me.

    That sentence makes no sense. Chimps and humans are both apes.

    Though I think there are other apes that are genetically closer to homo sapiens.

    Not only are chimps the closest relative to humans, but humans are the closest relative to chimps.

    I don’t know what op meant by their post, but i must say that chimpanzees and bonobos are indeed the most closely related apes to humans.
