"Google the meaning of professional, dead easy " "relating to or belonging to a profession" What my follow up question is, what does this have to do with fab?

"It usually means they work in a profession that requires a ‘professional’ membership i.e. letters after their name. Further to your question as to what it has to do with fab, I’d say absolutely nothing. I work in such a profession and would never put that I’m a professional on my profile. I think it implies a degree of snobbery." I would see it as someone of a similar educational level. For me who seeks regular, there would be a better chance we would have compatibility. I would rather read a paragraph stating they hold a professional job, than I can lick for hours, breathe through my ears, up for anything, ask me anything...... | |||

If I had pictures of my erect cock, or was engaging in sexual acts with others, it could be seen as public indecency. But this is a members only site, and as long as I conduct myself with dignity and decorum, it would be hard to bring a case against me. I’m an adult, I like sex, and I joined a site with like minded others. | |||

"I see the term “Professional” being used by many as being a reason they don’t have a face pic available for everyone to see on their profile. We all have the right to decide what photos we allow others to see whether we work or not. But for some people (myself included) a face pic can determine if there’s an initial attraction there or not. " Look I don’t see what the fuss is about face pics but not straight away !

"Professional can mean different things to different people. A professional photographer said to another that saying your professional just means you get paid for it: It doesn't mean you are any good at what you do. All with a job are getting paid and are in a profession. But not all have a responsible job or one with a recognised status. I think that is how it is used mostly on Fab. But in swinging, there are a very broad spectrum of careers. However, some will need to be VERY discreet (e.g. teachers, legal, celebs etc). " True | |||

"The opposite of a 'dosser' " Thats how I've always read into it. It's not so much a statment saying they're in employment its more a way to signal to others how they veiw themselves in terms of education, finance, culture and/or class. Of which I'm not hating on because because we all want to find the sort of people we want on here. So if stating your a professional gets you the results you want with the people you want more power to you. Personally all terminology aside we like to take people as we find them, in person. That's a better way to get a true measure of someone rather than the profile text and key words. That's why we much prefer to meet people in a club than through a profile. | |||

We're in danger of increasingly shafting everyone into categories without giving it much thought and missing a great chance of meeting some very good people. Sometimes, a profile isn't always a true indicator of how someone actually is or behaves. Ah well. Just my two cents. | |||

We're in danger of increasingly shafting everyone into categories without giving it much thought and missing a great chance of meeting some very good people. Sometimes, a profile isn't always a true indicator of how someone actually is or behaves. Ah well. Just my two cents. A profile is in no way an indication of what type of person you are ! Definitely not men ! We don’t write fucking paragraphs about are selfs we’r to lazy ! Literally I skip everything if I can then just wing it wen you get on the site not saying do it but I’m doing alright I know what you mean mate " Let are charm or my lack of do the rest ! | |||

"The opposite of a 'dosser' Thats how I've always read into it. It's not so much a statment saying they're in employment its more a way to signal to others how they veiw themselves in terms of education, finance, culture and/or class. Of which I'm not hating on because because we all want to find the sort of people we want on here. So if stating your a professional gets you the results you want with the people you want more power to you. Personally all terminology aside we like to take people as we find them, in person. That's a better way to get a true measure of someone rather than the profile text and key words. That's why we much prefer to meet people in a club than through a profile. Yeah, it's why I hated the online dating scene. People swiping left or right purely based on what their profile says. It's so different meeting in person. We're in danger of increasingly shafting everyone into categories without giving it much thought and missing a great chance of meeting some very good people. Sometimes, a profile isn't always a true indicator of how someone actually is or behaves. Ah well. Just my two cents. " Profiles just list items of sex meat. Like a sex catalogue. Not people. | |||

"Don’t know why but I associate. ‘I’m a professional’ with ‘I am a twat’. That’s just my opinion though " Say what you really mean | |||

"I suspect in means they are looking for people with jobs they respect. Bankers are in, dustmen are out. I'm not sure where estate agents sit on that spectrum. " | |||
