 ==History & flag==
 The word ''cola'' appears to have become popular in the 50s, as a code word for homosexuals and trans [[women]] used by the police. It derives from the inversion of the word "''loca''" meaning "crazy woman".<ref>[{{Archive|Site=web|URL=https://www.moscasdecolores.com/en/gay-dictionary/spanish/cola/ History}}]</ref>
