Also because at some point, they'd have to pay, I would think? Lots of men were getting treatment but due the folding of many centers back in the day, either fell through the cracks or couldn't go to another hospital (for whatever reason, good or bad).
And even with insurance (which some companies don't even cover) it's a bitch to pay for psych evaluations and a therapist and medicine.
Granted, you do have a point, many don't go out of embarrassment.
