Suicide is one of the first ten leading causes to death in the world with the annual mortality of 14.5 deaths per 100.000 people. It is synonymous to the desire of killing oneself deliberately and directly using any of the available means. However, men and women differ in terms of suicide means, motives and rates; this is known as the suicide paradox. Women are more likely to attempt suicide and report their failed attempts but men are more likely to commit suicide successfully and they are less likely to report their attempts. The present work is a review paper that sheds light on the gender gap related to the phenomenon of suicide in the USA and the crucial differences between men and women as far as the will/ readiness of self-harm. The paper aims at finding out whether suicide is a masculine phenomenon; it also explores the individual’s state being hung between life and death and the last thoughts that accelerates the execution of the suicidal act. |
