All Women Are Queens

2017snowcloneclassic

All Women Are Queens is a 2017 Tumblr snowclone in which one person calls a woman a thot and a second person interrupts with the corrective line "All women are queens!" It started as a Star Wars edit on Facebook and grew alongside the wave of Respect Women memes.

Overview

All Women Are Queens is a snowclone that flips a sarcastic exchange about respecting women into a two-part joke template. The setup follows a strict pattern: one speaker delivers a variation of "If she breathes, she a thot," and a second person interrupts with the corrective line "All women are queens!"14. The joke plays on the gap between misogynist internet slang and the exaggerated white-knight energy of the wider Respect Women meme wave3.

The original image macro used screencaps from Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, casting Anakin Skywalker as the thot-caller and Obi-wan Kenobi as the queen-defender1. As the format moved onto Tumblr, users swapped in their own fandom pairings, and the exchange also worked fine as a text-only bit with no screencaps at all3.

How It Spread

The antonnizhny repost picked up more than 110,000 notes on Tumblr, and that is where the joke stopped being a one-off Star Wars edit and started acting like a template2. Meme Documentation dated the shift to around June of 2017, once fandom blogs began plugging their own casts into the two-panel structure3.

On June 4th, 2017, Tumblr user ezoterist applied the format to characters from Voltron: Legendary Defender, clearing over 3,200 notes4. A pennynotsowise version using Hemlock Grove characters pulled in more than 680 notes in the same window3. The bit also worked without any images: a text-only kaspbyers post reached over 1,700 notes, and itsthegoldenlover ran the joke on Dream Daddy for more than 640 notes3.

How to Use This Meme

The template typically pairs two characters from the same franchise or show. The first speaker says some variation of "If she breathes, she a thot," and the second interrupts with "All women are queens!" as a mock-serious correction3. Text-only versions drop the screencaps entirely and just credit the two speakers as "normal people" versus "memers," a phrasing that also shows up in the Urban Dictionary entry5.
