wild woman

Uncivilized free spirit

A wild woman is a woman who defies conventional expectations of feminine behavior—she may be sexually uninhibited, fiercely independent, or prone to impulsive adventure.

The phrase can be admiring or dismissive depending on speaker and context: She's a wild woman on the dance floor.

In feminist and spiritual circles, wild woman describes an archetype of untamed feminine energy, rejecting domestication in favor of instinct and passion.
