Cholo/Chola

Historical: From the Spanish caste system (Castas) of the 1600-1700s. The word "Cholo" is a RACIST and OPPRESSIVE Spanish term aimed at persons born of 3/4 Native American descent (Mestizo + Native= Cholo) and was considered by the Spaniards as one of the lowest levels of the Spanish caste system. It was meant to be cruel, demeaning, and derogatory. It was shortened by the Spaniards from the Nahuatl word, "Xoloitzcuintli" meaning a "monstrous dog", of (usually) mixed and disreputable birth. Persons in this caste were registered by Spaniards in segregated books for births, marriages, and death registrations in both religious and government registers.
Historical Racism: That Cholo/Chola is so beneath you! If you wanted to be seen with a dog, get a Chihuahua!

chola

hardcore latina gangbangers. They usually have thin, arched, angry looking tattooed-on or penciled-on eyebrows, brown or dark red lip liner, 'Monroe', eyebrow and nose piercings, tats, Converse or Nikes, flannel shirts, lots of gold jewlrey (with their name and crosses), crunchy gelled or moussed hair either down or gelled in a high perfect ponytail either straight back or gelled in a design, and they go out with cholos.

A lot of regular mexican or puerto rican girls do the look but aren't cholas. A true chola is down for her barrio and is in a gang, and is as ruthless as a male gangbanger if not more. It is much more common to just look like a chola, and not act like a chola.

The chola style is common in southern California like east LA, San Diego, OC, and also NYC. In Miami they are called 'chongas'.

Chola Status

Drama with the mexican girl group. The mexican girl group consists of usually about three to ten Cholas. When you are in Chola Status there is almost no getting out. You better know someone on your side who speaks good spanish cause when they are mad they only speak spanish. You also better have a pretty good answer to their most famous line, "Why you pussyin out?"
