What is the difference between his and hers?

You can say it's his, it's hers.
The dog is hers. It's her dog.
But you have to say it's his dog. You can't say it's hims dog. The dog is hims. It's him.
Why is her a subject and possessive while his is only possessive. Why does the male get two words and the female one?

And it's English, mother fucker! Hardest language to learn in the world!

Learning to love life by living through loss and mistakes Lessons learned then gradually surfacing, Letting go, stripping naked to scream I am not perfect nor do I strive to be, I am alive in this world of face first falls and public breakdowns I'm a retarded, disfigured clown Dying to be heard through the simple art of letting this heavy wall finally fall I'm an equal being of no race, or color, a hallucination if you will Sneaking into the lives of strangers, and letting them fall apart to a new rhythm just to feel better

It's him. The jacket is her. The clown looks like It. The clown looks like him. The clown is him. The clown is his. It's her clown. The clown is her.
Why does she get two?
