Are you referring to something other than a female chicken?

[brulard]

Well, thats how I imagined it. A hen mowing lawns and spending at once. Still impressive for a hen

[Symbiote]

It probably should be "when I turned 10".

"They" would have been a lot less confusing here...

I'm baffled by why one would use a Swedish pronoun in an English text. We live in a strange world.

Not uncommon for Swedish-first speakers - just accidental language bleed, as is the case with most other second language speakers.

(As for "strange world" - have you looked at the etymology of most English words? :p)

I'd guess its similar to Danish and hen meant "he" here, Han in Danish

This reminds me of something Jimmy Carr said.

Oh! gender neutral elder, oh! gender neutral elder, what’s a joke?

YOU ARE!

Is this a new neo-pronoun I'm not familiar with yet?

[dagw]

It was first coined in the 60s and has been floating around since, but it's really only seen regular use in the past decade or so.

Thank you!
