Fake depression


[[File:Depression.png|thumb|right|400px]]
'''Fake depression''' is a common meme in the [[manosphere]] that suggests that [[women]]'s depression is often trivial compared to men's depression. [[Women]]'s depression has a childish character and should be paid attention to in the same manner as a [[neoteny|crying child]] not getting what it wants does not warrant attention.

Depressed women's problem is seen to be [[standardcel|too high standards]] and to be mostly about not getting the [[Chad|dominant man]] they would like to have.
Female depression is often rooted in their [[female solipsism|solipsism]] reaffirmed by men wanting to [[sex|fuck]] them.

Historically, there was a lot of concern about women faking their tears.<ref>Vingerhoets A. 2013. ''Why only humans weep: Unravelling the mysteries of tears.'' Oxford University Press [[https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=jEVoAgAAQBAJ Book]]</ref>

==Sex differences in suicide==
It is myth that women have more suicide attempts.<ref>https://medium.com/t/@jimpreston_36730/myth-women-attempt-suicide-more-often-than-men-bdded9044517</ref>
Instead, women generally choose less effective methods of suicide, so they end up trying it more often being less successful at it.
Feminists commonly attribute this to more empathy with their bereaved relatives and friends, but it is more likely once more evidence of women's lower drive to get anything done beyond producing offspring and crying for help. It is also highly likely that women deliberately attempt it using ineffective methods as cry for attention, with the possibility of actual death a mere fringe benefit if it happens. In comparison, men usually attempt it using effective methods, as their goal is to succeed.

Men are much more likely to commit suicide when being widowed at young age.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill#Being_widowed_in_one.27s_20s_increases_suicide_risk_by_.7E17x_for_men.2C_but_only_.7E4x_for_women</ref>

Men likely have more difficult lives on average as they are over-represented among the lowest economic strata and take on more dangerous jobs.<ref>https://endhomelessness.org/demographic-data-project-gender-and-individual-homelessness/</ref><ref>https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckdevore/2018/12/19/fatal-employment-men-10-times-more-likely-than-women-to-be-killed-at-work/</ref>
==Neuroticism==
Cross-culturally, women score higher in neuroticism (emotional instability and sensitivity to negative emotion) on average with a difference of d = 0.40 (especially in the facet anxiety, d = .56),<ref>https://www.gwern.net/docs/psychology/2018-kajonius.pdf</ref> but results obtained by questionnaires may underestimate sex differences. Adult women cry on average 4 times as often and more intensely (d > 1.0).<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_cry_four_times_as_much_as_men_and_never_outgrow_teenage_crying_behavior</ref> These crying patterns have a more childish character in line with overall female [[neoteny]], possibly as an adaptation to look needy and get investment from males (''baby schema''),<ref>Eibl-Eibesfeldt I. 1989. ''Human Ethology.'' Routledge.</ref> or cute females may be [[sexual selection|sexually selected]] by males preferring women that are easy to control and hence less likely to [[cuck]]old them.
Conversely, men have rather been selected for combat, hunting and stoicism.<ref>https://incels.wiki/w/Scientific_Blackpill_(Supplemental)#Women_were_historically_predominantly_involved_in_cooking_and_they_never_dominated_men</ref>
