In 2019 there were ~47,500 deaths by suicide in the USA. Men are 2-4 times more likely than women to successfully commit suicide, so let's drop that by a fourth to 35,625 deaths. There were ~61,000,000 married couples in the USA during this time.
This means, at the absolute most 0.06% of married men commit suicide each year. And this is with extremely favorable and certainly inaccurate interpretation of the numbers in your favor.
So an institution with a 99.94% chance of NOT causing you to commit suicide is a total failure and should be abandoned BECAUSE of the 0.06% chance it may lead you to commit suicide?

I think your numbers are well off.
For a start, they're skewed by 50+ year old boomers.
At least he brought numbers. You should try it sometime.
