Why does the media only report male suicide rates?

[Anonymous]

More women are suffering and committing suicide than men. But if you look online, all you see are reports of male suicide rates.

Women suffer from sexual harassment, being paired less, and catcalling. Men are more privileged because their mental health is taken more seriously than women.

Women have it the hardest, and I think the right wing is anti-women. Women's problems need to be taken more seriously.

We need to stop male privilege. It's getting out of control.

I don't know? perhaps its because more men are dying from suicides than women? the reasons for these male suicides are a lot more serious than that of women

Man, please upload on YT if you want to troll. This place is unironically a place where great posts are made. Please don't ruin it!

Well you have your info wrong. More women "attempt" suicide but more men Die of suicide because they use methods that guarantee no comming back.

Love your comment! Of course, we should not totally ignore someone's problem because they are not as big (or as many in our case?) but I like how you make things clear with your comment.

Also there is a difference between "committing suicide" and TRYING to kill yourself. One thing to point things out is that people who do the latter do not tell anyone what they're gonna do. I know I wouldn't if I wanted to.

Because depression is higher in men than in women.

That is not true. Women suffer more because of men. Men are more violent and cause harm and abuse.

I am sorry, I got that wrong

[Asker]

No, be confident in yourself, girl. If you think it is true, defend your opinions. ;) dont let no one steal your joy or confidence.

[artsy_dragon]

No it was my fault

[Katebfun]

No it's actually higher in women, we're also more neurotic.

[RichardoStyle]

That means higher rates of suicide and homicide in men.

But it is rare in women.

[Cubus]

Probably because men commit suicides more often than women.
