But couldn't that be because some do it as a cry for help?

Suicide attempt as cry for help clearly suggests you are not psychologically ok and that you need help now.

If anything, that makes me think that we need to give more emotional attention and care to boys, since they're less likely to seek help (even if the method for seeking help is destructive).

Yeah I suspect this is the reason. It'd be pretty stupid to insinuate a whole gender is ineffective at suicide.

The insinuation was a gender was more effective.
