Spanish term or phrase: a la que yo vea, se me antoje y puedo, me la cargo
Hello,
I'm in doubt as to the exact meaning of this sentene"a la que yo vea, se me antoje y puedo, me la cargo".
The speaker is a lower class male boasting of his prowess with women.
I'm confused about the se me antoje part? Does it mean if im attracted to her, I'll f##k her or if I'm in the mood for sex, I'll f##k her. Exuse the vulgar language.
Thanks

Explanation:
"se me antoje y puedo" es énfasis. Supongo que es español de México porque tiene todo ese barroquismo cantinflesco que da énfasis al tiempo que intenta ocultar. Un ejemplo de ese lenguaje circular es una canción ya vieja que dice: "Cuando tuve yo te tuve te mantuve y te di, hoy no tengo, ni te tengo, te mantengo ni te doy..."

Perhaps if you want to capture that convoluted language, you might think about "I'll f**k any woman I want, when I want to and where I want to".

Explanation:

My understanding of "se me antoje" here is "takes my fancy".

BTW, there's an option when posting a question to categorise it as "potentially offensive"; I suggest you use this option for any similarly vulgar texts you might post, as it doesn't really get more offensive than this!
