Well, seeing as you're the Threadstarter, it's not hard to see where this thread is going

 

[AAKing23]

In before "Because men are weak bytches"

 

[kav45]

because there is a social stigma around men having problems, particularly mental health ones.

It's a weird situation considering men overwhelmingly control the power

A lot of nikkas killing themselves over p*ssy.

Getting bullied, I assume, might be a factor.

Not living up to being a man by whatever standards their society holds is probably the number one reason.

"I rather die than not be a man" mentality

 

[Ashley Banks]

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it's because they're depressed.

"Men" don't control a thing. The biggest misconception is; "men' are some big brigade organized to control women.

The power is with the rich. If anything; it's because so many unrealistic expectation s on western men. Plus, as you said, mental health signed and not "being s man."

This basically...women love talking about their feelings and what not. But most times you go try to talk to one of your homies and you gonna catch a cold "fukk outta here with that feeling shyt "

I have heard that males are simply better at committing suicide than women because they use more violent methods to make it a guaranteed death. It's not the only factor, but it matters.

 

[ManBearPig]

Females are used to filling miserable by having periods and that kind of shyt

 

[Fellatio]
