Wikipedia: Global Male Suicide

This is a global suicide chart provided by The World Health Organization. As expected, the numbers show an overwhelming gender disparity. This information, while morbid, should serve as a sobering reality regarding the least spoken of MRA topics. The numbers are disturbing.

I think this is a very telling link. Good to keep in the repertoire.

It is clearly a universal fact that males commit suicide at drastically higher rates then females.

While I can see Russia and former soviet block countries are highest on the list, some of the rankings do not seem correct.

While I admit I know very little about world wide suicide statistics and my own personal biases could affect my feelings, I am not sure how accurate the rankings are.

It would seem the best place to be if you do not want to be driven to suicide is in parts of the middle East or Africa. Or that Mexico ranks significantly lower on the list then the United States. I certainly understand the preamble warning not to take these rankings as indisputable fact.
