Men experience four times the "success" rate of suicide, meaning they are more likely to die from a suicide attempt. This is not to say that men experience more depression than women, but rather that they may be less likely to seek help or treatment for their depression. Minority groups and religious values were not mentioned in relation to suicide or depression in the question. Although depressed women are at a higher risk for suicide than depressed men, this has no bearing on the rates of suicide between men and women in general.
