A pimp, someone who profits from women working in the sex industry. In Argentina, 'cafishio' is lunfardo at its darkest: a word with a specific meaning, no ambiguity, and a long history in Buenos Aires port culture where the term originated among immigrant communities.
“They arrested him for being a pimp in the Constitución neighborhood.”
“In those years the port was full of pimps and hustlers.”
