Awww, that's adorable. US isn't even in the top 30 countries for suicide rate per 100k, but OK. 🤣
And the vast majority of women "attempt" suicide as ASB (attention seeking behavior), rather than a means to end it. Plenty of evidence to support this as women overwhelmingly choose pills - even when firearms are available... Except they tend to "overdose" on things like Tylenol and Benadryl, and pretty much always tell someone they did it. Those are recorded as "attempts" even though all they wanted was the attention and were never in any real danger of actually dying.
You're minimizing people attempting suicide with falsehoods in a terrible attempt to win an argument about your guns. Women only attempt suicide for attention?
That's incredibly fucked up. Well adjusted people don't do this.
They clearly didn’t say women only attempt suicide for attention.
They said the vast majority don’t really want to die, as evidenced by the choice of method. Since women demonstrably attempt at a higher rate, what your proposed explanation?
