Gender gap in suicide
My article
Most popular culture movies and videogames that are aimed to men use violence to prove their characters masculinity. Guns also play a large part to influence men into settling their rage with violence. But does pop culture’s view of men mean that men are any stronger than women. Sure men are typically larger in physic but from a mental intelligences standpoint. Evidence shows that women are stronger. Women are becoming much less dependent on men to be the breadwinner and have better achievement levels in school.
Because of these gender stereotypes many men go untreated for mental disease because of fear from pop culture that was resulted in the gender gap in suicides.
Despite pop cultures view of how strong men are women are far superior dealing with their emotions and don’t have fear of looking weak to seek help on mental disease and are less likely to commit suicide.
