Confused. Attack speed/cast speed

Attack speed = only on your regular (not a gem/spell) attack?

Cast speed = only when you use a gem/spell?

The way I see it is cast speed effects blue/intelligence gems/spells only.
Attack speed effects green/dexterity & red/strength gems/spells only.

But for some reason I feel I'm wrong. I feel attack speed only effects your regular (non-gem) attack. And cast speed effects all gem/spell attacks.

Sorry guys, I did a search but I couldn't find my answers.

Thanks, dudes!

Attack speed affect any weapon based attack be it regular or skill.

Cast speed only affects skills labeled as spells in their tag list.

Great information, thanks.
It also helps to recall that EVERYTHING is a "Skill Gem" or a "Support Gem"....Skill Gems are either Attack Gems, or Spell Gems. Cast Speed is for Spell Gems, Attack Speed is for Attack Gems.

Kinda the whole, all toads are frogs but not all frogs are toads. (Kudos to anyone getting that reference.)

Was it a reference from 3-4 years ago? If so, it is pretty appropriate for this thread.
Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:
