Second useful post..
It doesn't really matter what you class yourself as with HMRC. The tax rules are still the same.
I have clients who have registered as Escorts and have no stigma with it; some clients are a bit more reserved and class themselves as therapists/counsellors etc.
One thing to consider - SOMETIMES, lenders (i.e. banks for mortgages) MAY want to see your last few years tax returns - these have your "occupation" on. If you are one of the people who have issues with occupation titles, then please think about what you class yourself.
There's no point in saying two totally differernt things to two different people as they may collide at some point.
