Maybe within a small group of existing pronouns like he/her/they, but no way will I ever refer to someone as xer/zer/zim or any sort of -kin pronoun.

Wait, what? No! My preferred pronoun is "YOUR HOLY IMPERIAL MAJESTY" and includes prosternation.

Well that's it. I'm never going into a US school ever again. That'll teach'em.
