Why is it masculine?
Marido descends from Latin "maritus" (married man, husband), which is masculine. While the word does refer to a male person, the grammatical gender is not derived from "mas" (male). Instead, "maritus" was simply inflected as a masculine adjective in Latin that became a noun meaning "husband" in Spanish. The masculine gender in Spanish reflects the Latin masculine gender of "maritus," a standard pattern of gender preservation in Romance language evolution, not a productive derivation from "mas."
