In many cases, "grooming" is the word the media and biased PSA's use to describe the same series of actions taken by a MAP towards a young person they admire that would be called "courting" if it was done by one adult towards another adult. A special value-biased word was developed for use in MAP-specific cases to demonize the act when a MAP uses it, as you noted.

So popular media use of the verb "grooming" can be defined as "courting that the polite public finds inappropriate." Or also, "courting with ulterior motives."

The general public still refuses to understand that MAPs are not typically sociopathic, and that our attraction base encompasses much more than a crude physical desire for sexual activity. Our attraction base also has strong emotional and social components. In other words, we like younger people we are attracted to as people, and take much emotional pleasure in seeing them happy, particularly when we did or said something for them that made them smile. Of course, the public cannot yet understand that adult attraction to children and young adolescents is not simply lust-driven, so when we want a younger person we like to be happy and to like us as a person in return, it's always claimed that we have ulterior motives.

This is partly derived from our culture's gerontocentric bias against younger people, i.e., the belief that children or adolescents couldn't possibly have any personality traits, interests, or intelligence that an adult would find appealing in an emotionally or socially romantic way. At least, not any "normal" adults, as the bias goes.

So basically, in the biased and ignorant eyes of the public--which the media is all too happy to promote--MAPs can be nothing other than malicious "players" when it comes to kids, to use the slang vernacular popularly utilized to describe adults (usually directed at males) who only want to get in the pants of another adult while pretending to actually like them as a person.
