Singapore Teen Kills Himself Over Small *****
by staff
Apr 22, 2006
An 18-year-old Singapore student reportedly plunged to his death because he was convinced his ***** was too small, a Singapore coroner's report said on Wednesday.
In announcing the verdict of suicide, state Coroner Tan Boon Heng said that the incident highlighted the importance of sex education in and outside of the country's school system.
The junior college student's death showed that even intelligent young people can be "victims of misinformation," Tan said.
"The deceased was so tormented by his unfounded (belief in his) inadequacy that it drove him to end his life," the ruling concluded.
The student, a member of the school volleyball team and described as "cheerful and energetic," jumped from a housing block on March 3.
The teen had reportedly confided in his mother back in October that he was worried that his genitals were too small.
In a suicide note, he apologized to his girlfriend and family for killing himself.
