Based on my personal experience, Dutch people don't find it rude to interfere with other people's personal business in the least.
Other than that, I don't get what the kerfuffle is about.

I became friends with guy through work, I repped his company for awhile, I've been a supplier of and customer of his over the years. He calls me about 15 years ago, tells me that he has to give a little speech/toast at his niece's wedding. He says, 'you're better at this than I am, can you write something, work a few jokes in'. I told him I didn't really know who he'd be talking to, I'd met his niece... He said they were all Dutch, 'you know the Dutch...' No, I don't know the Dutch. Research told me to go with stubborn and cheap as themes and things would work out. I did, and things worked out, he got some laughs and the marriage has yielded 4 children.Boring Choice #2 wrote:AD wrote:You're just describing old ladies.
i believe that was my point. old dutch ladies are like old ladies everywhere else and interfere with every aspect of other people's lives. and people (even dutch people) don't find it necessarily too rude because they allow it to happen.Boring Choice #2 wrote:TGR wrote:
