@#GQmagazine reminds me that #Grooming attracts a better Bride - #Groom

Well, the GQ ad doesn't specifically mention "marriage"; but it talks about 'grooming,' and I wonder why there's no styling-verb for 'bride-ing.'

That word (the 'built' one below)—there might be something more to that word ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which the our lexicon stands ...

---

The word “Groom” is built on “to Grow” (Man) or "|Young |Servant (who attends to Horses & |Stables)" (to |Tend, Feed, Care for ... |Ship's |Boy), "|Officer of the English |Royal House," "|Husband-to-be at a |Wedding, Newly Married man (short for |Bridegroom, correlative of |Bride)."

the ad reads:
