Surely it's a no then? 'Suicide is for the weak minded' is a positive, exclusive statement, if you think strong minded people would also commit suicide then it has to be a no.
That's now I interpret my own beliefs. I do not firmly want to say yes or no. Again, I do believe a "weak-minded" person can commit suicide so I could click yes but I also believe a "strong-minded" person can commit suicide. So, I don't believe the statement is exclusive with a "yes or no" answer even though you interpret it as such.
Although, I understand exclusive-or explicit statements state, one or the other, but not neither nor both, I feel this statement isn't completely exclusive even though many might see it as such.
To be honest, I just don't like limiting myself to "yes or no" answers when it comes to questions like this.
