Answer 1

The actual statistics show that more women attempt suicide, but more men actually complete suicide. The reason is because men generally resort to far more lethal and violent means.

Answer 2

Maybe marriage problems? good question


Men seeking a good reason to salvage their marriages may want to consider this: A new study finds that divorced and separated men are two and a half times more likely to commit suicide than married men.

Divorce, however, doesn't seem to lead more women to commit suicide -- a surprising finding considering the popular wisdom that women suffer more than men after a divorce, according to the study, published this week in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.

Answer 3

Oprah. No really Oprah, and her aspiring message underlined in most of her shows. Women are wonderful, great, perfect people, and are better than men. You have noticed the women work force go through a rapid change right? Well who does that leave without jobs? Men. Who wins in a divorce? Women. My point is that the roles in our society have switched drastically, and that leaves a lot of men feeling out of place. What good is a man if he is not doing what he is supposed to do? And also, women have closer friends then most guys. Every guy can't sympathize with their friends.
