It is a name of Latin origin to call intercourse, sexual intercourse itself. I was going to write the etymology but I remembered that I had already written many years ago in a forum on this subject, and since that site is no longer online, I take the opportunity to republish here: "In the late 1980s I was dedicated to the technical service of alarm systems, and one afternoon I had to visit a customer on the outskirts of the city. The house was a small chalet with a garden at the entrance; I crossed it, rang the bell and while waiting for the door to open I was struck by the image of a Virgin inside a niche, on the wall. The niches are small niches usually intended to expose religious figures, and their name comes from the Latin fornix, icis, voice with which the vaults, arches or flying buttresses are described. The characteristic shape of flat base and warped roof is not whimsical. If the roof were straight it would crumble due to the weight of the material on top; the vault shape distributes the weight downwards and to the sides, making the gap more stable. The same design is used for the furnaces (from the Latin fornax, acis) dug into the stone. And also for the architecture of the 'dating houses'. In the absence of rooms, the prostitutes of ancient Rome tended to their clients in bunks dug into the walls of the brothel, which of course had a warped or vaulted shape. These types of structures were called fornicatus, and hence our word 'fornicate', which describes the work of girls in brothels and can be freely translated as "the unworthy thing that is done in vaulted niches". In these meditations I was walking when I discovered that the door was already open, and the owner of the house looking at me behind the threshold. Did you also be curious about the Virgin? Here is not well known, the costume of my last vacation in Europe. I happen to show you where the alarm center is and while you have a coffee I tell you the story. Surely he was wondering where he came from, wasn't he? . . . -Eeeh. . . Yes, yes, of course. Thank you. - I said while muttering to my insides: "if I tell you that I thought of the sacrilegious irony of putting a virgin in the same hole where the whores got in, you will surely close the door in my face". »
In reality it does not exist in Spanish, it could be a vulgar form of "garfar" or "garfada", which would be other vulgarisms for garfear ("manotear", for "taking something the animal with the garfas" ), or some of its inflections, and of garfeada ("manoteada portion of something, usually to the brute").
