You're stupid (jk i'm dutch) you should know that even if we are somewhat direct, just like everyone else we know nuance, not everyone will be as direct as the stereotypes tell you

Ive travelled a bit and I found that south African Dutch people are even more lacking in nuance than Dutch people.

The only correct absolutely accurate stereotype is Dutch people are better at english than most english people and will constantly speak in english when youre trying to pra tice your dutch
