hellcats
Violently tempered sorts
Hellcats are fierce, aggressive women—the kind who fight without restraint or decorum.
The term often carries grudging admiration: She turned into a hellcat when they threatened her kids.
In military history, the Hellcat was a World War II fighter aircraft.
The word combines hell's fury with a cat's claws.
