In the United States, among young people aged 20-24, roughly 7 times as many males commit suicide as females: http://bit.ly/1ePOknr 

@PhilosophyExp There's always the bit, though, about how a much higher percentage of suicide attempts by men (than by women) are successful.

@Metamagician Yes, and then there's the complication of factoring in how many of these attempts are "genuine" rather than a "cry for help".

@PhilosophyExp Yup. Complicated stuff must be happening. But evidently a lot of miserable people of both sexes (for whatever reasons)...

@Metamagician Religion also interesting complication. Some evidence pressure on coroners, etc., from Catholic families to record open...

@PhilosophyExp @Metamagician but in England and Wales proof is beyond reasonable doubt- the same as unlawful killing

@ortrudethevegan @Metamagician old now, though, obviously.
