    I am going to stop you right there if you do not think the first 2 movies were the masterpieces. You are insisting the alien only impregnated females which is false and u know it. The Xenomorphes did not care who carried the damn eggs. Did u miss where they were bursting out of everyone? It makes sense the queen would want a hybrid from Ripley. You always pick the strongest of a species to have your baby. This is basic biology. You are trying to write fan fiction is all it boils down to. Feel free to do so but don't claim it is what the directer envisioned. This is a very good breakdown and explanation of the movies and novels
    http://people.wku.edu/charles.plemons/wod/aliens_breeding.html
    The purpose of the Aliens trying to be females and the queens not needing a man, nor a king male in the species and the males dying of after mating with the queens furthers my agenda of male hating while in reality no species really reacts like this and the metaphor is just construed for their own hatred agenda.

              Now going to the usual route of wealth rankings without show. That would make royalty, right? Show us your decree.
              and instead of sticking your uninvited nose in other people's business and then acting like your casting somebody with your wasteful time. How 'bout you go to a proper school and learn education and etiquette instead?

                  But in this Case Ripley is the woman.

                    The Woman is a white British woman
                    NOPE! Sigourney Weaver is American

                      Yea but her family is mostly British and so is she. But good point nonetheless.
                      My point was mostly trying to point that it's a white British/American/White Woman with a black male like species typically representing interracial. Which is highly frown upon on these societies.

                        The Alien is a mix of masculine and feminine attributes. The head is phallus shaped and it raped Lambert to death, but the mouth is vaginal in appearance and the Alien turns its prey into eggs. It is like motherhood run amok. Whereas Ripley appears more gender neutral.

                          Might have mix of attributes but it's behavior and appearance is clearly masculine.
                          The head is the purest obvious indicator.
                          I never thought of the mouth like that but it has an extension which to me was always a cock interpretation.
                          I have never thought of Ripley as neutral. I have always seen her with feminine sexuality but till now I have figured she was a feminist trying to embolden masculinity.

                            Hmmm, interesting. In the original concept art by HR Giger the creature is much more feminized. Lots of vaginas and little babies crawling out of birth canals. Also in the script none of the characters are identified by gender, Ripley is written as a man in the screenplay. Subliminally the movie is basically a metaphor for rape and child-birth. Or the Alien is a parasite (STD?) killing off children in the womb. To me the Alien seemed more like a female apex predator like the pompilidae wasp, the way it injects its eggs into hosts.
                            What do you think of the sequel where Ripley is forced to become a mother and to battle an even bigger mother for possession of a child?

                              This was sort of the post I was looking for.
                              A lot of it I didnt really think or knew before hand.
                              Im not so sure I like Ripley as woman or man. If it was written as man than it shouldve been. I like how it turned out and the amazing performance of Weaver but I dont like the games of the sexes.
                              In that case, I much preferred the film version. As the Alien was perfectly done and I have seen Giger's artwork and I never liked it much. It all seemed too sexualized and not like the film's concept or for the purpose of it. He seemed to wave away from the films true intention and appear like a pervert.
                              Do you really think the film wouldve gone anywhere had they kept it as they originally intended? and what type of sick **** is Ridley if he is into this? If people only knew he'd have the opposite of his career.
