      Actually women are more likely to commit suicide. Men are just more likely to die from it due to a risk prone tendency that causes them to take more lethal methods of suicide. Suicide is gender neutral, it has nothing to do with gender.

      Love it :). Asians have been treated so poorly yet never truly as slaves or considered legally as subhuman (Aboriginal people in Australia were legally considered to be native fauna up until around 1975). I am from Australia, when we had a small rebellion (eureka stockade) the white people refused to let Asian people fight along side of them. All the white people in the rebellion were slaughtered. At the same time Aboriginal people were not allowed to enter towns and had to live on reservations. I think you have just highlighted the stupidity ingrained in Western politics, culture and values. Often white people will say I don't like Chinese people except this one, and refer to the only Chinese person they have ever met.

    • @marcosmingucha3353

      it most likely has to do with the traditions, beliefs, and values that are embedded within the Asian community along with the facing the least amount of disenfranchisement in comparisons with other minority groups that exist within the US. the countries in which Asian immigrants within the US typically come from more developed countries from immigrants coming from countries on the Central and South American continent. This speculation as i have not done my full research of it, speak from my knowledge of corruption within Central America. In other words, this is my educated guess on to why those statiscis are the way the are.

      And you are wrong again, actually the top earners among Asians in this country are Indian-Americans (South Asians), their median household income is 100k. Filipino-Americans are also in top 3 (with Taiwanese-Americans).
