Back in 2012, Scandinavia took a step towards gender equality when Sweden introduced the gender-neutral pronoun “hen.” The word officially made its way into the Swedish National Encyclopedia and, according to Newsweek, it has really gained popularity. Now, in 2014, it is beginning to help eliminate gendered language, toys, and clothing in shops, nurseries, schools, and households. In fact, several new children’s books with gender-neutral protagonists have been released, and at least 14 major retailers have made gender-neutral toys and clothing aisles.
