Here's the best definition I found in the Urban Dictionary:

"A Chicana/Mexican America/Latina who is the female counter part to the Cholo in the barrio. She claims her space in the neighborhood, city, and community in which she is from. Doesn't have to have been "jumped in" to a gang to play a role as a chola. It really is a barrio mentality and pride in culture that makes her a chola.

The chola art is something very beautiful- while a cholo will have a uniform of creased Dickies, a white tank top and jersey or flannel, Nike Cortes shoes or "chucks", will most likely have several tattoos and a bald head... the chola will shave her eye brows and draw them in very thin like that of the pachucas. In fact their make up resembles a 1930-1940s feel to it with outlined lip liner (usually darker that the lipstick)and "cattails" a streched out line over the eyes and her hair can be bleached blond and puffed out on top like the pachucas...

A very beautiful culture... Cholas are well respected and have a very strong heart."

"Ahora venga mama chola"--Carlos Santana

"chola" means people that don't have a high or middle social status, do I need to say more? For example, The Nanny, that Tv serie, do you remember her?? that's a good example of a "chola"

In México we understand "chola" as a latin woman borned in US of 3er or 4o. generation which has attitudes of gangs and it consumes drugs and it dresses different from the rest of the young people

Like Some Americans call girls, Sweetheart, sweetie, cutie, or babygirl; in Spanish you would say vieja, mamita, or chula. Now, apply the same concept to a guy; cutie, hot, sexy; in Spanish, papito, papi, or papi chulo. There words of endearment that are personal with a flirtatious overtone.

mexican american female/latina descendant of what used to be low riders, now I guess they're sorta like gangsters but not full fledged gang bangers.
