Just to add to the shrep debate - we have not got any for having sex just for chatting online.
It feels rather awkward when you have sex with people you meet at a swingers club and establish they have Swinging Heaven accounts. As you leave, it did not feel right asking a fella to add shrep if he enjoyed my missus!

There's a fundamental confusion in semantics here.
The term "a professional", used in a general sense refers to a learned (pr. lur ned) profession, such as law, engineering, architecture, pharmacy, medicine etc etc and usually implies at least a first degree enhanced with further professional qualifications and experience. As such it is a noun. It makes no statement or judgement on one's material standard of living
The term "professional", when applied to a vocation, trade, line of work etc, is an adjective which qualifies the subject of the phrase, denoting that one plies that trade or vocation etc, for money. E.g a professional athlete (as opposed to an amateur).
The term "professionally" is an adverb qualifying the verb of plying one's trade, vocation etc, and denotes a standard to which that activity has been carried out.
Confusion often arises when, for example, talking about footballers, one might say "he's a professional". In that context, the word "professional" is being used as an adjective and denotes that this activity is pursued for monetary reward, the noun "footballer" is implied from the context.
English is a difficult language and is often poorly taught in schools.
Many people describing themselves as "professionals" using it as a noun, often are not professionals at all. Though it's perfectly correct to describe oneself as a professional (adjective) refuse collector, if that is one's job.
I find it highly amusing when people use the term "professional" as a noun, implying a certain level of academic and vocational achievement, but they spell it incorrectly.
We don't discriminate based on the use of this term when correctly applied and spelt, nor do we discriminate against those who do not see themselves as such.
Like all of us, there are certain types of people we have more in common with than others, and thus choose these as play partners and/or friends. Being a professional or otherwise, is by no means the only criterion we use in assessing compatibility with potential play partners.
