A Cape Flats term for Coloured/mixed race women who “act uppity”. The term which is both derogatory and complimentary is derived from the misogynist desire to put brown women who thought too much of themselves back in their place.
As a result there’s no male equivalent for the word.
There’s also a growing movement of young Coloured women/men who are attempting to own the word in retaliation.
