Apparently we are never depressed. Someone forgot to tell the 10% of the men in the world.

Car mechanics tell you the truth

Hah. If they're crooked, they're crooked all the time. I know girls who regularly only pay the "parts" portion of their bill because they're attractive.

And on the other side of the coin, when I need some lumber torn down at Home Depot, they charge me for every single cut (beyond the first free one). If I send my wife, they don't charge a dime.

Bullshit. Women can absolutely do every single thing on that list. The only thing stopping them is themselves.

We can't just ignore or dismiss men who are depressed. Statistically, men are more likely to succeed in a suicide attempt.

Aren't the depression rates higher for men compared to women? Or am I remembering wrong?

How depressing.

I'm surprised nobody wondered there why more men commit suicide

Women complain more, seek attention more, try to get sympathy more, and generally try to play victim more. Therefore, official depression numbers will naturally make it appear bad for them.

But, look at the number of people who kill themselves (not 'cries for help' attention seeking attempts). Men dominate this statistic. To destroy your own consciousness, your own identity, your own gift of life is to be suffering indeed. That's all a person really needs to know about who is sadder and suffering more between men and women.
