In the United States, men die by suicide at 3.5 times the rate of women.1 One driver of this gender disparity may be high traditional masculinity (HTM), a set of norms that includes competitiveness, emotional restriction, and aggression.2 Quantitative studies of HTM are interrelated with discourse on hegemonic masculinity.3 Using norm- and trait-based measures, HTM men were found to have higher suicidal ideation (SI),2,4 but to our knowledge, the association with suicide death has not been tested with a credible measure of HTM.
