Can someone explain the redundancy of shared pronouns with me? For example, why say "she/her" & not just "she"? Isn't the "her" understood? I kinda want to list mine is he/her now.

@Shanmonster For genderless pronouns, I have seen more than one preference for the second part of that conjunction, so I try to respect that individual's choice.

@alan I totally get it for neopronouns. The layperson is less likely to be familiar with object/possessive for them.

@Shanmonster So I guess then that CIS folks list both as a form of alliance with those using neo-pronouns, to help normalize the practice.
