Hi. I'm interested in Taiwanese slang-street, youth and college slang. I'd like to know what are Taiwanese slang terms for:

tough guy
tough girl
tough woman

Can someone please translate these terms for me?

Please let me know and please list as many Taiwanese slang terms as possible. Thank you.

Thank you.

I wanted to know are there any other terms for "tough girl" I could use besides:

女金剛 女強人 女流氓 赤諸某 and Qia4 bai3 bai, 大姐頭(da4 jie3 tou2) and 女混混(niu3 huen4 huen4)?

I know ah bian, meng nan, 好戰
肌肉男
壯男
壯丁
勇士 and 硬漢 壯漢 男子漢 流氓, meng nan and sio1-phah4-ke1 or sio1-phah4-kue1 are Taiwanese slang terms for a "tough guy". Are there any other terms I can use?

Are there any terms that translate to "tough chick"?
