Abstract
In their article, Drs. Patalay and Demkowicz raise important questions about research regarding the sex/gender gap in depression rates. However, their perspective on this topic is rather polarizing and yields statements of questionable accuracy. In this Commentary, I respond to several statements in the Article, which I consider potentially misleading. My goal is to present a broader perspective on sex/gender and depression and encourage further discussion of this important topic.
