clouding the issue of increased suicide among women who have had abortion by bringing in the totally independant factor of increases among men, will provide cover for your deception.

The link between suicide and abortion has to be made subjectively. If the rate of suicide (highest for white elderly males, by the way) has increased faster for young males than for young females -- then that subjective link is called into question. One would have expected more total suicides in the female population since 1950, not less. Your epidemic of female suicides just doesn't seem to be materializing. Your subjective link is seriously in doubt.

Has anyone studied whether legalizing abortion has reduced the suicide rate among men? I'm out of here. Cheers.
