When someone tells you they are a professional, what does that mean?

I get paid for the job I do but have sex for free.

Does that make me a professional or an amateur? ...

People will read into 'professional' differently. I personally see it as someone projecting their social group, and seeking similar.

I consider myself 'working class' but I'm often referred to as a 'professional' during work-related meetings. I think this is just because I'm paid to be there whereas others just have to attend for their own benefit.

To call yourself a 'professional' within social circles is a bit snobby and I wouldn't do it but on here I think it's just a way of saying 'I work and don't want to meet chavs/unemployed people' (please note I am not insinuating all unemployed people are chavs before I get jumped on).

No, professions are a class of jobs that require qualifications to enter (e.g. teacher). You cannot be a teacher if you aren't qualified.

You can be a professional footballer, but footballing is not a profession.

In the literal sense, no it doesn't because you wouldn't be barred from that job without your qualifications, your qualifications just mean you were much more likely to get it in the first place.

But in the vernacular, most people who consider engineers to be professionals.

In seriousness - I think people who put professional are as someone said earlier trying to filter out people they think they have little in common with. Im professional with qualifications blah blah blah but I have lots in common with all sorts of people and we all gave this interest in common - maybe theres a little snobbery in it but you can choose whether or not to meet them as much as they can choise not to meet you I'll meet anyone that isn't arrogant or conceited

Why are so many getting so worked up over this? Everyone has different turn ons. I'm personally far more attracted to a professional man with an average sized cock than to a man that works at Tesco that's hung like a donkey, so I can see why they feel the need to put it.Some women over cock size some over intelligence... if it works for you then there's no right or wrong way to find a man attractive

Because they've seen a profile they like that excludes them. To assuage the "slight" and massage their fragile egos they deride.

"Professional" is the bête noire here, but these types of threads come in different guises.

Well actually a lecturer teaching anything from hairdressing,beauty,Electrics,plumbing ect obtains a teaching certificate most have not attended uni and they are actually teaching a subject.

Teachers do not see a lecturer as a teacher .Academies are using lecturers to teach as you pay them below teachers salary and as they have a teaching certificate they can teach numerous subjects.

This is why you have hostility between teachers and lecturers with lecturers unions demanding equel pay .

I am a business man and earn possibly in some instances more than some in the so called professions.The reward we holiday and belong to numerous clubs which are dominated by so called professionals and you do get an air of superiority from some,when they find out you are working class earning decent money they get miffrd.

It's all very British and we mix with some who clearly are professionals with racked up high end debt leaving them with working class level of cash flow ,basically they haven't got a pot to piss in but look good lol.

We all see ourselves differently to how others see us .

The class background is now stretched you ha e the very wealthy ,very poor and the working .

Well that is what it is, it's not really something to disagree with, it's like saying water gets you get, I disagree, well sorry but it does, but using professional on here, unless you really don't want to meet anyone other than fellow professionals, I'd say there's no need, and I'd also say it's used far to much and ultimately wrong on many occasions.

Does anyone really care about class anymore? And how is it actually decided?

My job is probably as working class as they come, it's hard work, my hands get dirty and there's plenty of manual labour. But it pays very well.

So do we go on income or job description etc

The people that I see talking about class the most are politicians who claim to represent 'ordinary people'. But that's a discussion you can start in the politics section.

"Surely anyone in gainful employment is professional

No, a professional is for example, a doctor or a teacher.

And I disagree.

Check your dictionary then "

Anyone pursuing a vocation as a means of income that has had education or specific training in that field.

"It makes no difference to us if someone is an accountant/teacher/ doctor etc or works in a supermarket.

I wonder what happens when someone is seeking a professional couple where one half of the couple is a doctor and the other collects the recycling. "

Yes you are right as everyone contributes to society in one way or another so does it honestly matter what qualifications you have as we are all here to have illicit sex lol.

I for one don't ask a lady what job she does before I dip my wick as its the last thing on my mind during a meet, labelling yourself Professional or not shouldn't need to come into play when swinging as this can't determine whether a person is a degenerate or a nice person just by their education level.

I've got a degree but choose to work in a job which doesn't require a formal qualification. Funnily enough I earn more money now than I did before and I'm happier. Don't really care much for labels just do what makes you happy

Incomplete. It involves mandatory study for mandatory qualifications, required to be a member of a professional body. Again, there's a list of professions on Wikipedia for your convenience

I'm willing to conduct some research into this.

I need three ladies, one working class, one middle and one upper.

They will all be scored out of 10 on blowjob skills, I'll then report back with my findings

They don't "need" to - they just choose to describe themselves as such and choose to meet people similar to themselves.

Why do people struggle to grasp this?

You choose to meet people you consider similar to yourself in a particular way, as do they. I think this thread and the shrill outrage the mere mention of the word professional generates indicates that actually, it probably does mean something. I might start using it

Unfortunately job title etc matters to some more than the individual are they decent,contributing members ers of the public.

Britain is full of your fur coat no knickers type and generally they stick out like soar thumbs .

Possibly though when they say professional they are looking for folks on the same intellectual level as them and the same interests outside swinging as social side is important too.

Profession can be defined in many ways. I meet in a professional manner. No sloppiness.

I don't mind whether someone is professional or not. I look for personality. So prepare yourself for a psychometric test before you meet me. Or a coffee.

"You could be a single mum not working and be more professional than some of the smarmy idiots who class themselves as that.

How?

"

Because you could have gained a qualification and spent 10 years or so in a very successful career so when you choose to have children you can afford to take time out to raise your family. Okay, you main not be gainfully employed at the moment but you're just taking a career break and still have the same qualifications and level of intellect.

The same goes for the people mentioning Tesco employees. Maybe they've had enough of the rat race and can afford to work a few hours a week in a shop etc just to give them something to do and stop them from being bored.

How do you know whether someone is professional or not when naked in a club? Would you stop play if during the meet they mentioned they were unemployed?

Can't bear to read all the comments but in short the word 'professional' has more than one shade of meaning so it's automatically ambiguous. It applies to anyone who is paid to do a job of any kind but it also is applied to those who follow 'professions'. The three traditionally regarded professions are those of a doctor, teacher and lawyer. Technically speaking, those are the only real 'professions'. All other jobs fall into the categories of vocations, jobs or careers.

Hope that helps!

I happen to have more letters after my name than in my name. As none of them were examinations how well I could pleasure a woman, they are sod-all use to a lady in figuring whether I'll screw her well or not.

However, if she's happy to let me sit an entrance exam I'll do my best to pass! Especially if it's an oral exam!

Me & Kim are people persons who enjoy nice friendly people, yes we have met folk from every so called class & have made friends of the nice ones from these categories.

We too like people who stimulate our minds as well as our bodies & will find its their personality & not their educational success that determines if we meet again.

At the end of the day we meet Professionals & non Professionals so comments I've said on this thread were not a dig but rather a "why" you choose to label & sometimes alienate yourselves.

We are all the same naked...have fun folks x.

I'm not sure many people would be discussing their jobs during play. But I broadly agree with you because I use the same logic for people that put "No bi men" on their profiles. How do you spot a bi man when you're naked at a club... other than the limp wrist.

And many other professions. I'm a professional as I have to have a specific degree to do the work. The job has a protected title and I have to register and pay yearly fees to a governing body in order to practice. Is this on my fab profile though no because it bears no relevance to this or my sexual preferences and personally I tend to avoid profiles with professional in it.

Ok! I'm gonna spin this debate into another direction purely for fun!

Now, if people have uni qualifications, they've been full-time students as opposed to those who've been in work since leaving school. Now, does it follow that if you're a student you have more sex than those in work as you've got more time on your hands? So does having been a student make you more sexually eligible as people will presume you're more sexually experienced than people who haven't been students?

Discuss!

I didn't go to uni but I have been in a sexually active relationship for the last 23 years so although I wasn't having lots of partners I was having plenty of sex and most of it I've been sober for . I'm not saying I'm better at shagging or anything, just that it's not just students who get it regularly.
