>There's a gender paradox with suicide. Men die very much more often than women in most western countries, but women have much higher rates of self harm and self-reported suicidality. I've heard women attempt three times as much as men, but how much of that is explained by the fact that once you complete, you can no longer attempt. Had every one who succeeded failed, how many more attempts would they have added to the total? It is kinda like the paradox where planes should have armor in the places they don't get shot, because the planes shot in those places are the ones which crash and are never in the data set to measure.
