Apparently an offensive term to describe a latino female.

Please, not another thread about the use of the word chola. It is seen by some as a derogatory term, but Cami has chosen to refer to herself as a chola. HMs refer to her as chola because she likes the term. Perez should not be reprimanded for calling her a term she uses herself. Can we put this one to bed now?

Clearly Perez is using it an offensive way. |

She probably has no clue what it actually means. Perez will know exactly what it means, coming from America.
She calls herself it. That's why Patsy does though in an endearing way and why Perez does but in a sarcastic way.

![]() -ing on here over Perez calling her the nickname she actually uses herself was pathetic.It's not a racist word. |

Isnt it a racist word? Why no warnings for anyone.
Cami calls herself it and was happy for Patsy to call her it. Perez used it sarcastically because as I say Cami uses it herself. |

indeed. It doesn't have the sting in the UK that it carries in the US but it's loaded with all the shit that's flung at UK white working class girls like Josie Cunningham for being slappers, we're getting close to the prejudice that the word chola carries, but it's racialised. Chola means 'dog'.

Perez is usually being negative when he says it. It's not as if him and Cami are having a laugh and he says it in a playful way. He uses it as a negative way to refer to her.

Cholo for men, chola for women. It's a term commonly used on LA streets when referring to Lantinos that act, dress, or are gangster. A bit like the word chav, only some wear it like a badge of honour. It's only derogatory when you refer to an everyday, middle-class Latino as a cholo/chola because you're racially implying that just because they're Latino they must be a gang member (lots of Latino street gangs in LA).
If you pay attention to LA based crime/gang movies like TRAINING DAY, END OF WATCH, STREET KINGS etc or TV shows that follow LA cops, you'll understand how the term is used. |
