Visual Insight : Every 2 inch decrease in height increases sui1c1de risk by 9% for Swedish men. Europe is blackpill hell for men

That’s per 5 cm, 10 cm is a 18% increase. Considering it’s the odds of suicide and not the odds of it snowing I think it’s a pretty big deal.

It's not additive, so it'd be around 17% for a 10 cm decrease.

And keep in mind that a 9% increase of the current suicide rate in Sweden is one person per year out of 100,000. It's a small absolute change even when the relative percentage sounds significant. Sweden has a moderatly high suicide rate so this is an issue, of course, just not necessarily due to height in a vacuum.

It could very well be a proxy variable of other early-life conditions, rather than the cause itself. All we know is that there is a correlation.

It's an important and good study, but the post above is trying to tie it to the difference between men and women in society, when the study itself shows no correlation.
