Most independent studies put them at well over 50% ahead of placebo group.

Not working as well as advertised is a millions miles from empirical evidence that they don’t work. Work for some people and not others. Mental health needs bespoke care.

both seem inane and vapid to me.

ok ‘generally’.

But a lot straight men due to conditioning would want to fight back which is a different reaction women are conditioned to have.

there has been men who have done catcalling videos in past to other men and nothing happens.

that article agrees with me completely.

I am a man, and the name above the comment is already me speaking for myself dickhead.

Eh that would then just be harassing people to ‘see what happens’.

we aren’t fighting we are just talking :) I got excited thinking yours was based on ‘sounds of my youth’ rock band CKY ;). I suppose that is true, so it is presentation rather than study?

this is always such a dumb comparison. Sure harassment is irritating for men from women (bachelorette parties are the worst for that, so gross) especially in groups but danger/fear factor isn’t there at all.

Antidepressants haven’t empirically proven not to work, that is false. We don’t know how they work and don’t work for everyone but to dismiss them is bunk.

Black women are the least responded to I assume you mean?

but it is though in a large % of cases and is accepted as such by mental health professionals.

I didn’t say it did, but simply counting each OD attempt as a suicide is not good practise either. I have had ODs where I wanted to die and ODs where it was just a manic decision.

For fucks sake, the reason this is a major story is becomes women are perceived to be weaker and in need of protecting. It is a paternal instinct rooted in patriarchy.

Because this thread was started by someone complaining that they wanted to see ‘badass women’ cheating as well, despite the graph showing that you then responded in agreement to someone who had said ‘here, here’ to them.

but the study does show women who cheat as well. It is literally a graph with both bits of information on.

am I missing a joke? I would imagine the characters Asian heritage will play a role in the plot so not sure them wanting her to be uber white was crucial?

Again though this is a bit of a half truth. Comparing an overdose on sleeping tablets to a shotgun round to the head is not a fair comparison, which is why a lot of mental health activists are skeptical about using attempts as a measure at all.
