Message definition (Gender neutral language in Swedish)

Gender-neutral/inclusive language is a way of communicating that avoids gender stereotypes and includes all genders. This means using words and expressions that don't specify gender, such as "vuxen" instead of "kvinna" or "man", "hen" instead of "hon" or "han," and using titles such as "brandbekämpare" instead of "brandman", or "sjukskötare" instead of "sjuksköterska", as to not reinstate the idea that certain professions/roles are supposed to be for specific genders.

The goal is to create a language that is more equal and inclusive for all individuals, regardless of gender, which also reduces the risk of misgendering which can cause gender dysphoria for some people. Gender-neutral/inclusive language is both useful and necessary both grammatically and socially in situations where gender is varied/queer, mixed/diverse in a group, irrelevant/unwanted, secret or unknown.
