- This is tricky; the use is usually to put it in quotation marks for emphasis. [1] So, I don't know if this reference to the "oldest profession" will be very easy to cite. --Connel MacKenzie 10:34, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

- Dude, would you please take your medication! I made a comment in support of keeping it! I even provided a link, to show it is in widespread use! --Connel MacKenzie 21:40, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

- For citations to support entry, see Citations:business girl. There are 13 citations from Google Books, including references going back to 1931. Also, in online stuff it is obviously in common usage in Japan.--Richardb 15:09, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
- Never heard it used. I think I've heard something like boardroom girl. It also appears to get used more as a counterpart to "college girl", like "young professional".[2][3]--Halliburton Shill 03:40, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

@Ruakh I see you tagged this term's citations for cleanup back in 2010, but it looks like they are formatted much nicer now. May I remove your tag, or is there more to be done? — excarnateSojourner (talk · contrib) 00:24, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
