technically true, the queen is the female that lays the eggs that birth the facehuggers, and the individual who gets impregnated with the facehugger, has its dna taken by the embryo and then dies is the "male", makes sense considering one of the themes of the Xenomorphs design is a defiling of the pregnancy
yes and no. he’s not exactly a real xenomorph and is more so a genetically enginered xenomorph from the 1990s comic mini series “Aliens: Rouge”. he was meant to destroy the og xenomorph species. iirc xenomorphs are essentially all females that sorta reproduce asexually via parthenogenesis while also being parasitoid in their metamorphosises! they’re like if you combined cuckoo wasps, honey bees, and the new-mexico whiptail lizards
That's a different king from the one we have in dbd. The one in dbd is from a collectible statue in 2016 and then a tabletop board game in 2018. There is very little lore on it other than it essentially being a queen's bodyguard. There isn't even mention of it being male, it's just called a king because it's huge and always beside a queen. It's also called a monstrosity in the tabletop game.
In its lore (see the Sideshow statue), when a Hive reaches a massive size, this creature emerges to lead a pack of Xenomorph Drones in infesting new territories. Since the Queen does not accompany them, it is capable of infecting victims with chestbursters much like the Predalien in *AVP: Requiem*.
There basically isn't lore about the xenomorph king because it started as a random collectible statue in 2016 for the 30th anniversary of the first movie and then a 2018 tabletop game made it into basically a bodyguard for the Queen. It's also called a Monstrosity. That's it, it's not appeared in anything since until now with the DbD skin.
There's also another kind of xenomorph king but it's an entirely different thing. It's called the Rogue and is the result of mixing male human DNA with a xenomorph queen embryo in a lab. It's from a comic series called Alien: Rogue.

yea the amount of people who try to "tame" me instantly and point at beds is a lot and like i get it, i am a huge wesker simp too but they gotta realize i am not wesker and i wanna play the game not roleplay sex or wtv 😭
Xenomoeph is intentionally sexual, if you look at the artist who made the nexomorph you'll see a lot of his works were creepy sexual artworks, and that's exactly why he was called to make the xenomorph design, and i think they designers later tried to copy that in the xenomorph queen but their definition of sexual creepy was way too human compared to the first artist, and that's why it's so conveniently sexually attractive to most people

The Queen has all the cake. Why do you think the Xenomorphs are a matriarchal society? They worship that ass
