In the Koine Greek gospels and epistles we see poimen translated as shepherd repeatedly, 16 times, except when it is translated as pastor in Ephesians 4:11. Just like in Hebrew, the Koine Greek had one word for male and females shepherds. Just as teacher can be a man or woman

Discussed previously, although most shepherds were young girls and unmarried women, there were of course male shepherds as well as sheepherders, and culturally there were problems between some of them then as there still are between some men and women in the same role

In general all shepherds, male and female, smelled and were dirty from interacting with sheep from dawn to dusk. Genesis 46:34 says Egyptians call them abominations, disgusting things. Yet, the angel announcing the Messiah invited shepherds to be first to meet our newborn king

When you read, think, or hear about shepherds in a biblical and societal context, remove the singular image of a man with a beard wearing clean clothing, it really can be a young boy or girl or unmarried woman or man, they all are considered shepherds, and pastor certain flocks
