Studies have shown that sexual orientation is typically not a factor in death rates; however, the rate of teen suicide is much higher among gay teens as it is among straight teens, due to bullying, lack of acceptance from family, and religious-based attacks against them.

No, that is actually one of the lesser causes of boys committing suicide.
