@uhuhno6441 No, I was about to say the same, it is true. That´s why in bird-video's they specify which bird it is and where it is from, like a blackbird from America sounds different from ours.

Hmm..I think that was a myth. You wouldn't use human poop for that, that spreads disease. In those times, they knew about diseases and wouldn't have used poop from themselves to fertilize vegetable-gardens. I mean, flowergardens, perhaps, but not food. That is against the law even, I think.

Pfff haha, everyone knows that it's Berlin xD Berlin is the capital of Holland and Denmarks capital is just a big lake. Jeesh.

Yeah but I think those people mean Afrikaans and that exists. I call that African too, when I speak English.

@Ratherbflyin Okay, well, I'm sure that's what they meant with African :) I'm Dutch, we call it Afrikaans in Dutch as well, but in English, I'd call it African.

All while screaming MALAKA MALAKA MALAKA and honking the horn and then parking right in the middle of the road in Anthens, claiming; 'They will have to drive around it, we're getting our take-away-pizza' and then; 'Oh..they..oh...' KGGGGGGG "Ah, whatever, it was scratched anyway." Sincerely, a Dutch tourist that loved Athens, but was a little underwhelmed with their traffic-rules.

I have had a poopshelf (i'd call it platform) my entire life and even if it is a bad smell, it's always your own smell, I can handle that now. I mean. it's been 32 years.. it's never been that bad. I think it desensitizes you from it, to have that be a regular daily thing. @onrr1726

Zwieback is translated as Rusk on the package.

It's not about pain, it is about consent. It is not a medically necessary operation. It does not benefit you. It does not need to happen. It violates the body. Leave the kid alone.

I call it soccer when I speak to the Americans, but that's only because once you mention football, you get asked what team you support and whether you have seen the last match etc. And they are then talking about American football.

@philinevenendaal4481 Not really..but it's a short word, so it's difficult to hear. I'd say that in German, the E drags on a slight bit longer. E-e.. And the a is more of an Ah.. E-e mmah And in Dutch, it's more of a short E and a loud ÁÁ. Not an h at the end whatsoever. E-mmÁÁ

@captaincook7788 There is a slight difference in the pronounciation. My name is Emma, I'm from the Netherlands and I speak German fluently and speak to many Germans, as much as I can. They call me Emma, with a slightly longer Éé compared to the Èh-noise that the Dutch make. It's the Èh-noise that people in movies make when they lift their shoulders to show that they don't care. The German pronounciation is closer to the English pronounciation of the letter A.

I am from the Netherlands and in schools, around April-May, the WW2 stuff always started coming up again. My surrounding teenage classmates were always a bit nonchalant (to say the least) and did not really see the importance of it being discussed, but we're talking troubled-teens here, so maybe that's logical then. So every now and then, they included a horrifying little detail or picture, to get everyone's attention. I am a special little snowflake myself and would not be able to shake off ány of the stories I heard (let alone footage I saw) so whenever we learned shit in historyclass, I would walk around with that image for a few weeks (and some images are still in my head to this day.) For that same reason, I don't like to watch warmovies that much (depending on the warmovie) and I refused to go inside a concentrationcamp when my (ridiculous) exboyfriend surprised me by making us visit one. I always find that if jokes are not about the victims or ridiculing them, but moreso a word-joke or a joke about Hitler getting angry after being send away from artschool, I think the jokes are fine. I've accidentally made the mistake of using WK (WereldKampioenschappen, in Dutch the WorldCup) in a conversation that ended badly, because I teased the German about losing. I didn't know the WK was Weltkrieg (WorldWar) in German. Either way, if I was a bit more strong mentally, I would feel like I owed it to the victims to do more research (a.k.a. read more books and learn more) about WW2, but I have zero mental stability right now and regularly cry for 2 hours about the situation in Ukraine, and I'm not even from there. I need more hope and trust in humanity and learning about ovens and nazi's doesn't help that at all.

I went to look for therapy, but instead I got offered Oxazepam and Diazepam, because the waitinglist was so long that they 'hoped I'd just be fine with a pill.' When my mom asked if they were addictive, they said they weren't and downplayed any effects. Meanwhile, my across-the-street-neighbour had been addicted to Oxazepam and was now álso on Morphine, because she build up a resistance to it all. The woman then actually wanted to give me Oxazepam, without a prescription, just to 'try it out' because she 'wanted me to enjoy my life and feel that warm, soft, snoozing and lovely feeling in my head, like a kitten being wrapped in a warm blanket.' I said I'd think about it and they also offered me antipsychotica and antidepressants, while we were at it, because I really struggled with anxiety and they felt it'd help. I did not take the drugs, but continued the search through the horrible state-therapists (that work 1,5 year and then drop you, for moneysake) and now I am paying out of my own pocket, but my therapist is actively helping and finally things are going well. And also, talking was indeed the answer for the trauma, but the anxiety-issues were (partially!) caused by a thyroidproblem called Hashimotos. I only noticed that when I was already out of balance só far that I had near-anemia and fell on the floor 3 times, unable to properly breathe or speak and (already being skinny) having lost 10 kilos in a few weeks. So thát has helped me inmensly and I cannot imagine the horror that would have occured if I had tried their Oxazepam out of the tiny pillbottle and liked it enough to keep on using it. The only painkillers I use now are once-a-month (thyroidproblems usually cause heavy bleeding and severe cramps) and arguably, the painkillers are meant for surgery and they usually knock me out for 6 hours (because I respond heavily to pills to begin with) and then I get hungry and 'euphoric' and weirdly giggly and I suddenly start cracking great jokes, as if drunk. But I am a responsible user and if I think I can handle a month without one, I do that. And I never, ever take more than one a month, ónly if I can't handle the cramps. I have autism and ADHD as well, in general people with ADHD or Autism are prone to addictions, so I am extra careful with that. Luckily I somehow have a good tolerance for pain, so after jawsurgery I only needed 2-3 and did not finish the 10 pack (hence the reason I now use them for my menstrual cramps, with permission from my doctor, that is aware of my issues.)

I would have hated to have to shower after gymclass, I know that all of us were very insecure about our bodies at the time (one girl was physically abused at home, so she was covered in blue marks) and luckily our showers had legionella and were therefore, permanently out of order. If someone wánts to shower and covers up a bit, I don't see the problem. It's about the setting, about giving a little warning..youknow. If a girl blatantly would have walked in naked without announcing she was naked, I would have maybe felt uncomfortable. But if she just had a towel on and said; 'I'm going to dress myself now!' then we could have politely looked away for a bit. I know my perception on things is different, because I've been through some nasty times and situations, so to me, nudity isn't always a safe subject and especially not if it's "sprung on me" out of the blue. I remember even feeling physically ill when a vague acquintance immediately took her bra off (without saying she would) to put her bathingsuit on before we went to the beach. Had she simply mentioned she was going to, I would have looked away a bit. So, I don't know, I feel uncomfortable with those things, but that's because of trauma and if the people aren't standing closeby and aren't asking anything off me or making direct eyecontact, I guess I'm alright with most. Or if I'm warned beforehand xD Like going to the red-light-district (I live near Amsterdam) you know what to expect. So then there are no strange surprises, most of the time.

@jamesr1703 I'm serious. Two Valleygirls complained about the lack of goats, others wondered if there was a horsecart from SchipholAirport to the hotel, they were expecting 'mud-roads' and complimented (backhanded) the airport out loud for being 'almost as clean as the USA" (while a cleaner was scrubbing the floor that their heels touched with bleach, of all things.) I've had people ask me where they could get safe water, because 'obviously the tapwater was not drinkable' because it 'did not have any chlorine' and was therefore 'infected with parasites, drugremains and filth' and they also didn't dare to walk into buildings like churches, because those could 'collapse any second.' The church has been standing since about 6000 years, but sure, Hank will walk into it and that'll be the final blow that makes the church collapse. People have panicked about the dangerous streets of Amsterdam, but instead of panicking about the dangers of walking into the bikelane (which they should nót do, and instead just walk onto) they are telling me that they are afraid of getting their food drugged by a café, like 'in the movies' and then they'll be sodomized by strangers and sold onto the sexmarket, 'like in taken.' I assured them nobody would drug you for free, we are famously keen on making money here, so if your brownie stinks of hash, and it costs more than a normal one, and you look around and see weed-leafs everywhere and the sign above you says; 'Coffeeshop!' with weedleafs and people around you are smoking and Bob Marley music is playing in the background, then it is safe to assume you walked into a drugbar. They famously advertise the drugs, otherwise the tourists wouldn't find it. We don't 'drug you for fun' so that we can clean up the floor after an overwhelmed American vomits on it. There is no time for such nonsense, there is money to be made. I can't give anyone guarantees, but I can assure you the chances of the following fears happening are slim; 1. Witnessing prostitutes fuck animals and humans on the street (They famously have windows and they don't fuck animals) 2. Seeing gay people fuck on the street (they famously have wonderfully designed houses and stylish bedrooms for that.) 3. Having people kidnap you like Liam Neeson's daughter to sell your American-style bodies on the dark web. 4. Invite you over for a lovely cup of tea and then announce a spontanious orgy 5. Offer you free sex, with the sole purpose of spreading diseases 6. Giving your tourist-teenagers euthanasia-pills because they mentioned they are depressed 7. Casually killing your grandma with euthanasia-pills because that's what we get off on 8. Marry you and then reveal we are now 3 people in a marriage (Fox News was convinced we did this) 9. Beat you up, because we saw a cross on your neck and we consume Christian blood Street-cons WILL however....pickpocket you, so watch out

@RobertR3750 Are you assuming you do not get blasted with your news daily? Because whenever the USA farts, our oxygen is gone? We are constantly being bombarded with information about the USA. Hell, some of us knew more about Sean Spicer and Mike Pence and Trump and his entire administration than they knew about their own parlament, because it was moreoften on the news, because Trump had nuclear plans, remember? It is simply the case that European countries are smaller and since the USA mainly cares about itself to begin with there is no way that they'd ever try to educate themselves on what the countries or continent as a whole is currently like.

But at the same time, you're a melting pot of different cultures, and it would be nice to understand what all the Mexicans are saying. Youknow..there was a man that worked at the borderpatroll and said something along the lines of; 'Hola, do you have a mucho dinero in your trucky-trailer?' and that was it. We don't have to speak German either...the chance of me walking in a forest and suddenly being confronted with the fact that I've crossed the border into Germany and I don't understand anyone anymore, is really small. We just learn it because it's easier to communicate with the neighbours that way, and it's nice to eavesdrop on them (for a change...) and youknow, be able to chat a bit with tourists that walk around in the town. Americans are confronted with other languages every single day, especially in big cities, but the schools don't bother to teach anything outside the borders, not anything remotely worthy of mentioning. I have written down all the states as a kid, when I was 9. I had to learn those, in a few weeks. I'm from the Netherlands, we're miles away from your country. I had to mark them on a map, learn a few presidents, what was going on with George Bush, what was happening in the big cities, what was happening in the countrysides etc.etc. Joking about you all speaking one language is not necessarily a superiority-stunt, it's a subtle confrontation and encouragement about maybe the US adding a language to their average school-day and removing a few things that don't matter, to balance it out. I mean, everyone speaking on this page went through a good few years of learning your language, so they could communicate with you. It's nice if the Americans did something like that for their neighbours too. Or at the least, that they read up on the news and realise that most European countries that they think have horses and carts and goats on the street, are more modernized than the average US city.

@karlybyrd1551 Depends on how long you sit. People with difficulty pooping that sit for a long time, might create more stink. But if you have healthy poop and you sit, poop and go then it makes hardly any difference.

There's a difference between asking the Germans if Hitler is still alive and asking them about their accent. Also, there is a difference between carefully asking if a person from India has a laptop, versus a person from Stockholm or Berlin. I mean...European westernized countries are more modern than the USA. So yes, we have refrigerators, our airports are cleaner than yours and whereas we try our best to portray America as a prosperous, clean country in our movies..the American movies still put fucking goats on our Dutch roads and suggest we have rusty old jails with 5 bars in front of the door and an old bikelock. (source; Spiderman, the recent movie.)

In my 30 years in The Netherlands, I have seen a bird on the windowsill once, which is when my ex left a big piece of bread on the kitchencounter. Bird was too afraid too go inside though.

My sister hátes the part after the wedding. The moment the marching starts, she starts screaming; 'Turn it off!' Especially Ralph his whistle, is a big problem for her. And the fact that indeed, they would not survive the mountainwalk without food and drinks. My sister thought that the ending was just...their last few hours on a mountain, she did not get the 'happy ending'-music or something, she just thought; 'They will freeze to death in their one-layer-wool-travelcoats and starve. The end. "

@umutkarzai9190 I have a load more examples if you want to hear more about Americans asking me (Dutch girl) whether I have internet. Asking me via emails. Or Americans asking me what my price is, because I said I worked in Amsterdam and when I clarified; 'No a departmentstore' they said; 'Ah, so, with sextoys?' Many of them are sheltered and don't know what Europe is like. They imagine Europe as a weird sortof...fairytale-land with some horses and carts and old Russian grandma's, in rocking chairs, singing about dead nightinggales and feeding their pet-raccoon.

What if you could've made the decision yourself? What if you'd been born in the Netherlands, with everyone having a turtleneck?
1
@MaBer-67391 Right..I thought Americans were all about celebrating uniqueness and being yourself? Not to be rude, but did you end up becoming like everybody else as a kid? Like...same haircolour, same skincolour as everybody else? Fully disappeared in the crowd as you pleased?
1
What I mean to say is...there was no bullying of any kind to your children, as you hoped? @MaBer-67391
1
@MaBer-67391 Right. I'm sad to hear you got bullied, but I just wanted to highlight that this happened despite you being cut there. If you hadn't been cut, it would have merely added a new reason for the crowd to ostrichize you, but you were cut, so they bullied you about being skinny (because the rest was, as Americans usually are, not skinny, I presume, so you didn't fit in?) I can assure you that people that cut their babies genitals up so they 'don't get bullied for being different' are really misguided. Maybe not with bad intentions, but réálly misguided. (I was bullied and assaulted at school myself and I can assure you it made no difference whatsoever what I wore, how i looked or what I said. Only to myself. If I wore my favorite dress, they called me a disgusting goth and if I called my let's-hide-today-shirt they called me a boring mouse. Both were offensive, didn't make a difference. Didn't make a difference in getting beaten up any less. Dressing up like a tart got you s-assaulted and dressing up like a mouse got you s-assaulted just as badly..) I am happy you build yourself up, through all the struggle and you say you are happy with your circumsized penis, but you have never had an uncircumsized one, so how would you know? I can say I'm happy with having 2 eyes, but if I knew my parents cut out a third eye, to make me fit in, that would've made me angry. Not saying your parents had bad intentions, but you must admit that it is a shame you never got to decide for yourself. That was your own body, you get to decide what happens to it.
1
Also, as far as I'm aware, when there is a medical need, they don't cut it off fully, but simply cut to make room on the side, like you'd do with a skirt that doesn't fit. Not remove it completely. And I'm sure that happens when the person is 12-13-14, the age where they'd be able to choose what they want.

I am Dutch and we watched an episode of Sabrina the Teenage witch. They made a Dutch chocolate cake and we stared at each other, couldn't figure out what it was about. Appareantey it had Belgian chocolate in it? So it wasn't a Dutch cake...but a "Belgian-Chocolate" ......+ (cake.) Youknow, so only the German chocolate is German, in this case. The cake idea and result is American.
1
@chrisb2535 I'm not even sure anymore what was being said in that episode, whether they called it Dutch, Belgian or both. I vaguely remember a few minutes later, Walter White (being a bit younger at the time) came into the room and sat on the couch, wearing only sock-suspenders, boxershorts and a shirt and tie. It was indeed a stupid sitcom haha. A fun one, sure, but very stupid.

@StormyDay The effects of girls mutilation is worse, but that doesn't mean the male version is any less insensitive or horrible and both gruesome acts should stop.

@StormyDay Okay, well, do we get any further with argueing who gets more pity? I'm fairly sure the girls circumcision gets more public attention at this point and males do not. And now it is important to make the males-situation also important, in this instance there is a lot of suffering going unnoticed. Nobody is suggesting we have to ignore the women's rights in this. I certainly am not Why would I?

@StormyDay Youknowwhat, you're absolutely right. It's just skin, there is no suffering. Now take this cheesegrater and take some off your nose. Don't worry, not the cartilage..just the skin. Júúst the skin....
