Sorry, I didn't realise that the use of "quotes" would cause such consternation. I will endeavour to use them more often.

I don't believe going in climbing comps qualifies someone as a "professional climber" unless they make a living out of going in climbing comps. Few do.

SBC doesn't make a living out of going in climbing comps. She makes a living out of creating a high profile for herself on social media and getting advertising endorsements. She makes money out of self-marketing.

I'm fine with that but calling herself a "professional climber" is a bit rich and a bit of an affront to really talented female climbers who work their arses off to do what they love and make a living at the same time.
