Neanderthal Hookers?

I guess if you look at it that way, you must concede that the prey that they first hunted was Neanderthal Hookers. Therefore, Prostitution or Hunters would have been superceded by that now taboo profession of Rapists.

Seriously, I have always doubted this saying. The word profession connotes some type of skill and learning. I would say that it was one of the world's oldest "trades" though.
