Soi-mêmes

Soi-mêmes

Does soi-mêmes with an 's' also exist? Can you give some examples? How does it differ from soi-même without 's'?


- Dans ce cas, on est soi-même responsable. [one is responsible oneself.]

- Dans ce cas, on est soi-mêmes responsable. [we are ourselves responsible.] Is it correct to write it with an "s" (similar to vous-même(s) or nous-mêmes for plural meanings)?
