Depression

Consider that for every man who suffers from depression, 2 women do. Why? So many factors need to be taken into account.

It is far less socially acceptable for men to be depressed, less accepted for them to cry or show emotions equated with anything *less than strong and tough.

Women are still unequal in this society. I don't give a shit if women say they are "liberated" by stripping classes showing off their thongs (well actaully I do care). Women are still undervalued. Still objectified, still make less money for doing the exact same job (and then often going home to do yet another job).

How do we determine if more women are depressed than men? Why is that? And what to do about it?
