You probably have heard about the arguments radfems make, which is that even though men are more likely to die from suicide, women attempt more. Therefore, we should help women.
You see, I've issues with that statement:
A: If you say you are feminists and you argue that men commit suicide because of TM, don't you think that because of TM, they would not tell the true number of attempts they made, let alone even discuss about them?
B: Men do attempt suicide more. It's through self-harm behaviour and habits, such as alcoholism and drug addiction.
C: This line of thinking is falls flat when it comes to DV. You say that because women are the majority of victims of DV (not what I believe) and domestic homicides, therefore we should priortise them over men. But when it comes to suicide, now it became a matter of helping everyone (an idea I wholeheartedly support)?
