FRC’s Pat Fagan: Let’s start calling gay marriage ‘garriage’
The Family Research Council’s Pat Fagan has suggested equality opponents start referring to gay marriage as ‘garriage.’
Fagan, director of FRC’s Marriage and Religious Research Institute, made the proposal at a book presentation at the anti-gay group’s office on Wednesday (10 September), Right Wing Watch first reported.
The Ireland-native said ‘language was key’ to preserving traditional marriage and the Supreme Court had no right to redefine it.
He then came up with three new words to redefine gay marriage:
‘A proposal, something along this line, that we in the pro-family movement start using related terms, but keep “marriage” for what it always was,’ he said.
‘So we might call – and this is to be worked out – but something like, if you’re talking about gay marriage you call it “garriage.” If it’s lesbian, you call it “larriage.” If you want a generic homosexual marriage, it’s “harriage.”
‘But getting these words into use I think is key. And that will take time, but whomever holds the language ultimately holds the whole game.’
