I get guys stating this all the time when I'm genuinely not remotely interested in their career paths - after all I'm not going to be marrying them!
My definition of a profession is a doctor, teacher, nurse etc but quite a few tell me when we chat that they are in fact carers like myself, work in retail are on benefits etc. I don't care anyway but why insist on using the term professional in the first place?! |

Guess it's an attempt to make themselves more appealing in a lot of cases, or to convey that they're from a certain part of society.
As others have said though it seems to have become a catch all for "employed".

Yeah what's a professional couple too if I were to meet them wouldn't be interested what they did just was a normal couple. I would rather make mistakes than fake perfections  |

If someone describes themselves as a professional I see it that are describing themselves as doing a job that they've had to do a certain amount of personal development for, and requires a certain level of ambition. Some people might feel they have more in common with someone if they have a similar outlook to themselves regarding career. Others might regard this as classist and snobbish, and feel that what job one does has no reflection on how well people get on. And others might feel it makes no difference because they want just sex and minimal conversation.

As we've said before, if you can sign a passport then in our book you're a professional, if you can't you're not. The Royal charter mentioned above is a great point. If you've been a decorator for 30 years you're not a professional bod, granted you'll be an exceptional decorator which is very different. |

"A true professional is someone that belongs to a professional body which has a Royal Charter...
Bang on!"
Could be confusing though, you wouldn't know if they are in the Royal Institute for Chartered Surveyors or Swingers? |

I like to take a professional power dressing lady in position of authority and reduce her to a quivering orgasmic mess with just fucked hair, panda eyes and jelly legs, look down on her and think, "you don't look that professional now do ya?" xx |

The Queen may be slightly perturbed if her charter was issued to a swinger....although you never know with Prince Philip  |

So lawyers or accountants are...but not teachers or a professor?
What about professional footballers?
I have a physics degree...(really).. would that count or not? |
