no, it's not. that's why I said it makes sense when Amity pointed out that it was probably just choosing less messy methods. the burden of cleaning up usually falls on women so I can see how they would be sympathetic to people left to clean.

again, I think it's mostly cultural. women have traditionally been expected to take care of the kids and the home.

honestly, there is no telling why they brought suicide up in the first place. I think mostly it was just to **** with their heads.

If I could give infractions here at KR, I'd give you one for this. you're dangerously close to inviting a discussion about you know who from you know who when you bring up glamorous suicides involving pills.

Yeah saying that women dont kill themselves because they prefer pills is stupid. If someone wants to kill themselves, they will. I don't think it's cultural, I just think just like men are physically stronger, women are emotionally stronger. Especially in places like the US AND uk, the cultural things you listed wouldn't apply much in the current world. Women just deal with pain and emotions better in my opinion. There's probably studies that support this. I don't think it's that ludicrous to say, is it?
So you said the second in line in the UK is a woman? The UK always seemd like an amazing place to live in

I don't think it's about the plumbing. It's a brain and spirit thingy. Positive thinking vs negative thinking, and how that manifests in the abilities to perceive the world and solve personal dillemas.

Wow, that's one of the first intelligent things you've said on the board (that I know of). I'm really proud of you .

here's the problem. you're making a statement without having done any research. a quick google search will turn up plenty of articles.
it is not stupid to state a fact.
