I don't think race has any connection to suicide rates, but gender and age certainly do.
In all races and in all cultures, men are several times more likely to commit suicide than women.
I read somewhere that throughout the world, older men are the most likely to commit suicide (men over 50).

From wikipedia:
Gender and suicide
In the United States, males are four times more likely to die by suicide than females. Male suicide rates are higher than females in all age groups (the ratio varies from 3:1 to 10:1).
In other western countries, males are also much more likely to die by suicide than females (usually by a factor of 3–4:1). It was the 8th leading cause of death for males, and 19th leading cause of death for females. Excess male mortality from suicide is also evident from data from non-Western countries.Last edited by The Hammer; 03-07-2009, 12:03 PM.
