Wikipedia
Chonga
Chonga is a Spanish-derived term used especially in South Florida, often to indicate a working-class, sexualized, aggressive, and emotionally expressive young woman. Chongas are also a distinct subculture, believed to have developed in Miami in the late 20th century. Members are typically young, working-class Latina women. In South Florida the term is usually considered a pejorative, though some young women are proud to identify themselves as such. While feminist scholarship on chongas is limited, early work by gender studies scholar Jillian Hernandez has suggested that the chonga identity is an "emerging icon", and that it can be empowering for working-class women.

chonga
The term "chonga" refers to a specific stereotype associated with young Latinx women, particularly in the Cuban-American community of Miami, Florida. Chongas are often portrayed as flamboyant, loud, and wearing flashy clothing and accessories. The term can also carry negative connotations, often used to stereotype or mock individuals perceived as exhibiting loud or inappropriate behavior. However, it is important to note that stereotypes should not define or limit individuals, and that actual people may not conform to these generalizations.
