I’m just being goofy. They always called the big one queen.
If we’re not considering what they do to people’s faces, they reproduce asexually so likely they don’t have a sex.
Every movie kinda reconned the previous one in terms of lifecycle, so it depends on which one you decide is valid.
The first one, the eggs are just kinda there, and the alien doesn’t have a clear lifecycle aside from egg -> facehugger -> pupa -> alien. There’s no info past that.
If you add the director’s cut in, then it adds that the humans the alien caught get turned into eggs to finish the lifecycle. So it’s kinda asexual reproduction? Not exactly clear.
Aliens, they add a queen, so it’s implied that it’s kinda like an ant colony. Except the queen lays eggs that spawn facehuggers that plant the pupa into an organism.
Aliens3 makes it more clear that the facehuggers spawn aliens in the form of the organism it was implanted in. Which is how we got the dog alien, etc.
Past that, it’s all over the place. Especially when you introduce the black goo and whatever the hell Prometheus decided.
Wow, such large, herbivorous teeth you have there Mr Alien! 👽😬

It was the tie 👔 that threw me:-P.
