Our journey through the subject of assisted suicide and its relevance as a men’s issue has come to its final chapter. Tonight we are briefly going a couple of human rights recommendations, but focusing primarily on one that, once again, puts men’s rights on the back burner instead of offering men equal treatment in medical policy and equal protection under the law. There’s no question that this is coming. Western governments are leaning toward assisted suicide legislation one at a time, so it’s not a matter of yes or no, but when and how. We’ve seen over the past few months what’s wrong with existing systems like MAiD, and looked at some attitudes toward men that may increase their risk of being encouraged to die rather than recover when they’re suffering. How can legislation to legalize assisted suicide in terminally ill patients be done in a way that protects vulnerable treatable patients from being pressured to accept euthanization instead of fighting to receive Medically Assisted Longevity Enhancement? Why aren’t men’s lives as protected and men’s end of life experience as carefully considered as those of women?
