Off topic but what are the tenses/grammatical cases of your pronouns?? I've never seen it with more than 3 cases and you have 5 in many. The last (with self) on it I can understand. But that still leaves 1 too many for my current understanding in between.

Edit: wait possessive, I figured it out with comparisons between them. Leaving comment for posterity though. Would still be interested if we should all be doing that? Or is it only needed for neopronouns?

subject/object/dependent possessive/independent possessive/reflexive

If you want to see them in action see http://www.pronouns.failedslacker.com/ it's a cool website! I think I also copy pasted into my username from there.

Wow that's a cool site, putting your name and pronouns into stories to test how it feels. I have no current doubts about my gender or pronouns and no real desire to explore at the moment for myself, but can see how valuable this is for anyone with any doubts or desires to explore! I'm going to keep this one in the back pocket for my child once he's old enough to understand it.
