Queen Kong (1976)

“Stop the attack of the planes and helicopters this moment! You cannot destroy her! For she represents all women everywhere! Women forced into a mold to satisfy the images of male chauvinism! If you destroy this beautiful beast, you’re destroying a lifetime of female struggle! Yes! She represents woman! Woman struggling to find her identity in a society viewing her as a kitchen slave and sex object! Woman subjugated to the whims of man with no consideration for her own personal self expression! What you see as a terrifying gorilla, I see as the embodiment of the frustrations of all women everywhere! You’re not persecuting her because this poor creature is a giant gorilla, but because she is a woman. A female. A feminine creature. You persecute her like you persecute all women! You take her from where she can be loved and respected and force her into a costume that you find suitable. Ladies everywhere, this is your chance for emancipation! All of you! Big women! Small women! Ugly women! Beautiful women! All of you must gather together to save your friend, our friend, Queenie!”
