i disagree...
i think it's because most women that "attempt suicide" are really just desperate for attention and really have no intention of killing themselves, but are trying to get pity.
like the girl from this college that "attempted suicide" by jumping out a second story window.
i saw that (tesoros 'facts') on the learning channel...there is a higher suicide rate for men.
*also
I agree with Matt... women just want pity...
