WorkInProgress said:Hmmmmm... By "profession," do we mean any occupation that involves one person providing a service to another person and receiving compensation, or do we mean a service that involves a specialized skill and some degree of dialogue among practitioners of that skill about technique, and some means by which practitioners of that skill teach it to others and evaluate their readiness to be practitioners themselves? (Of course, I'm not sure even prostitution fits any of that.)
