China's state doesn't take the role of the family afaik. The state is pretty laissez-faire until something global comes up. Also I don't think the men to female ratio being higher is that significant in aggregated data. It was like at most 120% vs SK which is ~100%. I don't think it would effect the gender suicide ratio that much. I'd even assume having more male competition pushes them to be more valuable to women i.e. more stress. I don't know much about indian culture.
