Most I can think of at the moment are derogatory.
A "dog" is a person pushing their horniness to inappropriate levels.
A "cow" is someone fat and slow/stupid.
A "shark" is a savvy business person who edges into taking advantage of people unethically.
A "snake" is a liar and a cheat. Sometimes slang for a penis.
Quiet, shy people are "mousy".
Someone who tattles to cops/authority is a "rat".
A "chick" is an old-timey term for a girl/woman that might get you slapped.
A "kitty" is a vagina and also may get you slapped depending on context.
Someone messy/dirty is a "pig". "Pig" might also be used for a man who is rude and pushing sexual innuendos onto women without their consent.
While to "go the whole hog" means to not hild back, to embrace doing a thing completely.
Yeah, I would advise using against using it today. Like, I said, old timey. Not as acceptable as it might have been in decades past.
I'm middle millennial and consider it flippant at best. Like "chick flicks" and "chick lit" are seen as less serious/valuable/artistic than media intended for men. "Hot chick" as a way to value/devalue a woman on looks alone.
