Fair but it sounds like this guy is not nearly so reasonable as that as he is blaming

women’s increased participation in the workforce

I see. In that case, I don't believe it's causal, but another symptom of the same illness.

The politician also states that it is due to becoming a female dominant society. Your statement still stands that inter gender relations are a factor in male suicides, but man, it's crazy that they've just taken a few steps towards gender equality and are already crying for help.
