It depends on the state and the city. Amsterdam on a night out, will be a bit slutty, in comparison to conservative states in Murica. Then again, Florida on a hot day or Miami, will be véry slutty in comparison to Naarden Bussum. In general, it's too cold to wear skimpy clothes. But I can imagine she's seen some enthousiastic people on the (one and only) day of summer here. And I bet that, if there was enough sun, people would wear hotpants and a top and that's it. I mean, sunbathing topless isn't considered normal in the USA and it is here.

@@Widdekuu91 well i dont see a lot of women sunbathing topless tho. its kind of like a myth. everybody says its happening here but you never see topless women
Well, I do think a lot of dutch women are self conscious when it comes to wearing heels. I personally used to be, I love wearing high heels but a lot of people around me would say ''Why are you wearing high heels?'' '' You're aleady tall, you dont need to wear them'' Even a teacher looked at me wearing high heels and said i was ''Too tall'' to wear high heels And its like .. Dude I just want to wear high heels let me be ahahaha
I love Dutch girls; no-nonsense, genuine, natural beauties in jeans, no crazy high heeled shoes, just practical, functional, independent and focused on having fun, human connection rather than looking fashionable.
Yeah, and when it comes to sex, no time conduming rituals and whatnot, no, just go straight up to the guy and just say: "wanna...". Easy peasy. Nothing to it. 😁 (or??? 😉).
I’m an American who’s lived in Europe (Stockholm, Sweden) for 10 years now and I think Dutch women are by far the most beautiful and stylish in Europe! I go to the Netherlands several times per year and have many friends there and I’m always impressed with their unique clothing and stylish hair. Swedish women are obsessed with only buying hipster clothing brands and wanting to look exactly like everyone else whereas the Dutch are more individualistic (and that’s much more attractive in my opinion).
I have been to other European countries and I think this is very true. I was a bit offended by the Italian lady who says we throw something on... Because I think that's exactly what a Dutch woman doesn't do. But maybe she was talking more about make-up and hair. Yeah we don't care about that a lot.
What? My husband, English, just to emphasize further difference would not agree fully with that. Dutch ladies can be stylish but that is so random. To see Dutch woman having make up done is a mostly magic or they are not native Dutch. Style here is very simple. Leather jacket, any type of Jean's, chinos, leggings will do and boots, never cleaned up and polished. And bag. Or MK or any other similar. Never seen women in suit, high heels. But if you consider the philosophy here just don't stick out. It's pretty natural.
@@alexkonjanan5810 Oh, ja hoor. Ik zal de rest van de draadjes ook even bombarderen, wanneer ik tijd heb. Bedankt voor de tip. Was dit hele filmpje al vergeten. Uit je reactie kan ik opmaken dat je nog nooit een punani hebt geroken, of dat die van je dinnetje juist enorm er naar riekt.
As I’m learning Dutch, I’ve been watching as many Dutch films as I’m able to find - which surprisingly and unfortunately is pretty limited (what I can find in the US but also generally from my research). I’ve just watched “Just Say Yes” and it was super jarring to see a lead actress in an actual film with a BBL and tons of facial filler. You see that everywhere in Hollywood and low brow/trashy/reality TV, but never in actual films. I wonder how accurate the representation of Dutch women is in that movie? Seems very different than what is described in the comments and this UA-cam video
Anthony from the USA is spot on.. we ARE totally into fashion, but imagine: doing your hair up, putting on make-up and a pretty dress then stepping outside to cycle to school or work, with hard wind (bye hair), rain (ruined makeup) and an average temperature of 18 degrees (brrr in a dress), makes no sense AT ALL.
It really depends on the person. I have seen really fashion oriented women, casual simple women, and also really unique, cute, and flashy on their own way. The "doe normaal" is STRONG on this topic though. What they say, that there is a major part that just "blend in" with how they dress and style themselves is true. But also there is something that i really appreciated when i was there, and it's that no matter how i dressed i didin't feel judged or observed at all. Everyone minds their own business, or at least don't show it haha. I can't wait to be back.
Her hair is naturally curly, which is different from the electro shock example she used, she basically meant that girl don't put much effort in their hair and probably just go out how they already are. It's different from natural hair, don't bash.
Me, a Dutch girl: not confident, very short, never showing my body off, don't own Nikes, hate animal print, don't own a leather jacket, having a hard time relaxing, don't have a pretty/charming face, not strong at all 🤣👌 I did recognise some other traits though, and I definitely know the type of girl they're talking about.
Red Bull blikje, leren jackje, slordig knotje met blonde highlights, harde oranje strepen op de wangen, lipgloss, lange nagels, getekende harde, dikke wenkbrauwen, witte gympen (duur merk), lichte skinny jeans, bruine handtas en mascara met 1 laagje nepwimpers en een gare fiets. Da's er eentje. En je hebt strakke paardenstaart of vlechtjes, bomberjack met groot stukje dode vos erop, kistjes/zwarte nikes, camouflage-broek, choker-ketting, sigarettenpeuk, blikje Monster Energy of Redbull, scooter, zwarte sporttas of rugzak, veel oorbellen, dunne en hoge getekende wenkbrauwen, piercings, ringen, gescheurde broek, kauwgom en een dikke en dure broekriem. En dan nog; krulletjes of lang blond haar met laagjes, geen make up, normaal bloesje of truitje, opgetrokken mouwen over de handen, kat als huisdier, fiets met bloemetjes erop, leesboeken in de trein, giechelen, scheve tandjes, kleurrijke kamer, dunne kettinkjes, linnen tasjes, vrolijke jurkjes en gekke oorbellen met rare hangertjes eraan.
Ik geniet enorm van deze filmpjes. Ze zijn humoristisch, ze pakken de goeie onderwerpen en als Nederlander is het heel interessant om je bewust te worden van de verschillen.
Dressed up for you can mean something else for another person. She might see that as dressed up and you might find it casual. We all have different opinions, that's life.
@@GreyMonix That is why a lot of these answers/comments in the video are pointless. It is all the perspective of the person who is 'judging' how others are dressed. Cultural behaviour is also part of the differences between nationalities.
Jade Summers . I just think if you call other people not dressed up, you should have something to show for it. If I passed her on the streets, I would actually think she was Dutch 😂
Dutch women are beautiful, tall, into fashion, straight forward, strong and self confident. Yes we take our kids to school on our bikes during a heavy storm and still look good doing it.
The one who ‘accuses’ Dutch women of having ‘electric’ hair has it herself and looks plain as can be (for an Italian...). The older US woman talks about large boned women in NL but comes from a country with lots of obese people who wear clothes that are way too tight 🤔. Most of the other comments are also hardly recognisable to me (as a Dutch woman). But call me crazy.
Me as a dutch person (who travelled alot): this is sooo true lol. Indeed women here dont care as much about fashion and their appearance, and i think its becuz of the other thing mentioned sometimes in the video: they feel more comfortable and have more confidence with who they are.
I think they actually do. But it's more understated and refined. Nice hair and neat clean appearance, good skin, minimal makeup. Its a lot of attention to make it seem like "you just are naturally pretty".
@@collection6062 that minimalist attention you talk about shows that they don't care... these things don't require 'a lot of attention' but just a little bit. In other countries women also pay the basic attention to neat clean appearance, good skin, make up, but on top of that care more about fashion and looking extra pretty.
This is stereotypical of the “farm” girl from Netherlands, brought up for generations with healthy dairy products so they have strong bones and genetically very robust and strong. Just like the Dutch that came to South Africa. The men like me are all big and play rugby and eat a lot and are confident. We are very nice and straight forward people.
When someone says “ Dutch girls look like they had an electric -shock and liked the way their hair looked “ while she looks like she could use some products ... GIRL! Here is some curl control & and curling iron . Maybe a bit of heat protection and here a bit of hairspray 🙃🤪 ! ( feels very attacked by here )
Just came in from cycling a few hours (needed to pick something up a few tows away) and was laughing my arse off when I heard this comment. Even after all this, my covid-style-hair looks better! (It should, after being blow-dried, wetted down, blow-dried again for many km's by Mother Nature!)
Nederlandse vrouwen zijn praktisch, ik werk op een kinderboerderij heeft t dan zin om mijn gezicht te plamuren? Nee, daar zie ik echt het nut niet van in, daarbij gaat het om de kwaliteit van mijn werk en dat word niet beter of slechter met make-up op mijn gezicht. En Nederlandse vrouwen zijn behoorlijk zelfstandig, wat we zelf kunnen hebben we geen man voor nodig, ook niet omdat dat gezien word als een mannenklusje. En hakken draag ik persoonlijk weinig omdat ik al meer dan lang genoeg van mezelf ben🤣
Rashawna L. Ja maar ze zegt als Nederlanders geëlektrocuteerd worden gaan ze nog steeds zo naar buiten maar wat ik bedoelde was dat haar haar ook zo omhoog staat alsof het geëlektrocuteerd is
Nederland vind ik een geweldig land omdat ik als vrouw inderdaad vrij kan en mag zijn en onderscheid tussen mannen en vrouwen niet te groot is. Kus voor holland.😀
So, I am not the only one to think that Dutch people are very practical and simple in the way of living and dressing which is I like it. It fits me well.
Unless our women wear shirts with mold on their shoulders and jeans covered with mud, I think they're fine. Taking care of yourself is perceived differently in every country and therefore has a different meaning. Dutch women don't walk on high heels very frequently, but have you ever tried walking in high heels over our streets? Made of cobblestone? Do you want our women to have broken ankles? Also, wearing a tight dress with high heels just isn’t comfortable. Many Dutch women are cycling to work or to the station, nobody got time for that other shit. We like being comfortable, men and women alike, so jeans and sneakers are a big thing in The Netherlands. And when it comes to make-up, we like it natural. Just use your best features and enhance them just a little bit. Nothing more needed. Even better, go without make-up! Also, we favour social equality and directness. Don't expect Dutch men to hold the door open for you, because last time we checked, you had two functioning hands to do it yourself.
Leon, jij moet nog veel leren. Als een man galant is, is dat een dikke +. De meeste mannen zijn dat gewoon niet. Is niet Nederlands?? Maar inderdaad, we kunnen het zelf ook!😁
Not even Dutch but agree with everything said here. About the door tho, here in DR we hold the door for the people behind us, it's courtesy. Not like a worldwide rule tho.
Holding doors open is something you do when the woman has two heavy groceriebags, a disability, a broken arm, when it's an older lady or (occasionally) when you're on a date. And also, randomly, if she's *right* behind you and you open a door. But holding it open as a courtesy, every _damn_ time would be exhausting. As a woman, I appreciate it every now and then. But when I'm on a date and I'm being "guided" through the city, like a fragile puppet, I feel insulted.
We see splitting the bill as equality. If I am on a date with a girl, I will feel uncomfortable if she wants to pay the entire bill. To me, it seems like she thinks that I cannot pay for myself. We favour social equality and directness; so, it would be disrespectful to not even ask for splitting the bill. Also, about being cheapskates, The Netherlands is actually very generous! We love to share our knowledge, our skills and even our money with everyone who needs it. The Netherlands is one of the biggest donators to development programs in the world. We spend MORE money on development projects than China, The United States and Japan all together and…. we don’t ask anything in return! It may look stupid in your eyes (go see an optician), but that’s just the way we are. Dutch people believe that they have a responsibility to share our skills, knowledge and wealth with people who need it.
I have Chinese parents, and what I love about the Netherlands is that social status matters a lot less than in China. In China people will look down on you if you are a construction worker, or even delivery person. This includes not wanting to look poor. Chinese people would even spend all their money just to buy something to not look poor. I rarely encounter that in the Netherlands.
Can't help myself... A guy from the UK saying there's not a lot of sun in the Netherlands? And funnily enough, the American lady on overweight girls' clothing, is exactly how I felt about American women. Not trying to be facetious, genuinely loving the content.
Some things are true for example that we are confident but I think you are in the wrong country. Every woman is different in her own way. Some woman like to dress up and some woman not that much. I went to Brazil and there you have also woman that like to dress up en some woman not so what is wrong with that. The important thing is that you feel confident and beautiful.
I think these people didn't meet much Dutch girls. They seem to have a lot of bias. While I think Dutch girls are very versatile and openminded and practical. You have them in all sorts, from wearing high heels vs boots, from natural make up vs no make up vs expressive make up. Fashionistas vs have your own style Etc. Etc. About all woman topics.
Dutch girls are pretty practical and confident, from all the girls I've met here. I like it. It's really refreshing especially since you gotta bike everywhere lol.
Just an ordinary opinion from dutch folks 🙃 I am actually a girl from the Netherlands and I travel much through the Netherlands so I actually have friends all around and well.. i get that most of these things that are said are they’re look on “dutch girls” but I just could not disagree more when listening to them.. like I did find the part where they where talking about our freedom and own choices of what we wanted to be very precise on what is actually very common here, But when they were talking about that we as “woman in general” feel less insecure about ourselves and or don’t really care about how we dress Really irrelevant, many woman and or girls are of course sometimes insecure about themselves, and yes sometimes we say “F it” ya know but most of the time it’s just a mask to put on to look stronger.. I actually did discuss these story’s with more of my family and friends but most of us agree that, : yes we like to wear what is comfortable and or what feels right but it doesn’t have to mean that that’s“not stylish “ we are all different yet very the same..as one of my friends said to me: “it is many times talk like this that actually sometimes are the cause of some girls thinking they need to change because you are revering to “Girls” or well said people who are under the age of 18, these girls are most of the time really insecure about themselves (wow even In the Netherlands?? YES) and just want to get to adulthood without people shaming they’re body’s or they’re dressing style and many teenage girls are very insecure about they’re skin so yea it’s sometimes kinda rude to point out the fact “the Girls rarely wear make-up” wich btw is not always true if you are actually revering to girls under 18 here than I can say that many normal school girls wear makeup”. I am really not attacking these people but some things just did not click for me like.. We are all woman and we all know how hard it is to be judged so much on our appearance, we don’t just take what falls out of our closet of course not it falls out off the closet because we are just desperate to find that one thing in there that we needed to wear on this specific day. You don’t have to agree with me and all these people that I discussed this with whoem (Most) of them are all originally from The Netherlands Sincerely from.. Just a girl from The Netherlands ✨ Hope you’re having a great day 🌷
Ikzelf ben Nederlander, maar ik heb de grootste moeite met Nederlandse meisjes en vrouwen. Eigenwijs, afstandelijk, onbegrijpelijk en kil. Buitenlandse meisjes zijn veel gemakkelijker en beter benaderbaar. Ik ben 53 en de laatste keer dat ik verliefd was, was veertig jaar geleden. Ik ben uiteindelijk getrouwd met een Indonesische.
Wowowow, hier in Nederland hebben wij heel veel mooie meiden. Volgensmij praten zij hier over een andere Nederland ofzo. Want hier zien de meiden er leuk uit
Dutch woman are more ladyblike/feminine than a tomboy, but also more of a tomboy than being a ladylike/feminine. The one made the remark of dutch woman being homogenous is very true. It's like the meme of all blond are alike, it kind of fit here. But that is also for the dutch man not just woman. Its quite homogenous here how people dress and act.
One time, I asked my Dutch boyfriend what nationality is the prettiest, he said Swedish. There are of course beautiful women in every nationality (I reminded him Doutzen Kroes is a gorgeous Dutch) but he said that most of Swedish women he saw/meet are all pretty/beautiful. Nope, I don’t have any Swedish blood lol. I’m full blooded Filipina.
Lol that's the Dutch for you. Telling his asian, brown haired, brown eyed girlfriend straight out he prefers blonde, blue eyed european woman. If nothing else the Dutch are predictable direct.
JRS UK Hahaha. I love his honesty- makes him so genuine and authentic. As for his opinion, I don’t mind it as I know I’m the prettiest in his eyes 😂 and I adore his answer actually because tons of blonde women lust after him. And he makes me feel like a goddess of my own ☺️
Im Brazilian and I lived in the Netherlands, a lot of things said here are just plain wrong. Overweight? No, the Netherlands have of the lowest obesity rates in the developed world. Some things are true though, like what the girl from Hungary said about it being very homogoneous in the way people dress and act, there is a big culture of conformity.
Most of what these people say is so true. Super casual style, everyone looks the same and woman hardly ever high heals. And idd, theres no use of doing our hair, step outside and the wind and humidity have ruined it all 🤣
We might not be the prettiest ones or the best dressed but we're at least not shallow and arrogant like Italians for whom only their looks concern. Dutch ladies are naturals: life isn't about looking good, it about being happy and be good to others
I'm from the Netherlands and come from Limburg, which is a bit more conservative. But still, in my youth I had many girlfriends and most of them did the first step instead of me. I was a bit slow (or shy)....That's how Dutch women were when i was young... not waiting for the guy...
It hasn't changed much. I think men are even more terrified now, to make the first move, as even winking at a woman could be considered sexual harrasment nowadays. Which is complete rubbish. On topic: truly hope chivalry isn't completely dead. If a man opens the door for you, it's just nice. Doesn't make anyone less independent.
Dutch women do appreciate holding the door and taking their coats, although its less of a necessity. In my relationship, my girlfriend and i are equal, although i insist to carry the heavier stuff, because its more practical... Doesn't mean she doesn't carry stuff at all. Dutch women do not like restrictions, inequality and they do like to be most independant. Even in household chores, we both do things we're best at. Washing is divided into seperate parts, she divides the clothes and operates the machine, whilst i hang it up, fold it and put it back in all clausets. (except for hers, she has her own ways of putting the clothes back) Practical and pretty is what girls commonly like, in the Netherlands.
We always open the door if she comes home with the groceries by bike in the rain. We thankfully take the beer out of the bags to help her, take a glass and sit on the couch.
It's sad that traits which are leftovers from a more chauvinistic era (paying for the woman - she wouldn't have her own money; opening doors - she's too weak to fend for herself; etc) are considered "lacking" by some of these people's cultures. Let me keep my independence, flats, and certainty in my own value and skill as a human - who cares about my sex.
Note to the italian girl (and others): Milano is like a big catwalk. Its not representative for the rest of italy. In the country sides of italy (and other countries), people have electric hair, wear sportsuits, nikes, and other confortabel suits. I slept on different italian campings with only italian people, and they are not as fashionable as in the big city, which is totalmente a posto.
I have to agree with being confident. I think it’s how they (most are) raised as kids. Also Fedor describing Russian and NL society at 5.06 made me laugh. It’s funny because it’s true 😂
To be fair, our (dutch) hair is often messy, because the weather is crappy. We live in a very windy country, that get’s humid in the summer aswell. Every time my hair is nicely done, our obnoxious weather ruins it. Riding bicycle doesn’t match well with neat hairdo’s either.
As a 53 year old woman from the Netherlands I don't recognize a lot in this first few minutes of this conversation.. Every girl/woman I know is insecure and it takes hours in the bathroom...
In some ways I feel attacked but flattered at the same time 😂 Americans and Dutch people are really alike... it’s just that we Dutch people are a bit more direct and stuff. But fashion and confidence is pretty much at the same level, that’s what I think though.
I can definitely agree on this, sad thing is. Most girls in my town (yes i am dutch) do care About what they look like before they leave their house and wear a lot of designer and/or mainstream clothes. Litteraly so many girls here try to look the same as each other ‘cause it feels safe to them. Which is a shame because i can agree that our girls are Unique and beautiful!
Vanuit ons perspectief misschien niet. Andere culturen maken dat veel vrouwen, veel bevestiging nodig hebben omdat zij nog te vaak als "minder" worden gezien. Gelijkheid onder geslacht is hier beter voor elkaar dan je denkt.
All these women are oblivious of dutch culture. Dutch women are some of the classiest in the world. They are moderate, smart and for style they have their own style! Not like those over the top butt obsessed brazilian and american women of course! Pls dontyeven compare dutch women to russian women! Russian women are known for being??? I’m not dutch but i live here and know some of the classiest women that are dutch compared to... hurm brazilian? Lol
I think they're trying to make themselves feel better by saying that Dutch girls are "more confident". Thats a personal thing. And about "they wear too short dresses" that's a choice of someone. I mean these arguments are all so personal
Man nothing beats a dutch women. Their confidence and attidude is so damn amazing. The girls actually do take their time to look good, people here saying they don't is bullshit. Sure they wear more casual cause of the practically of being here, but doesn't mean they don't look good in them. A dutch women always looks good regardless of the weather. Them being so independent adds another flavour to it. Prolly 1 of the best type of girls you can find anywhere.
I'm Dutch and I do stand out A LOT here fashion wise, seeing as I've adopted a modern variant of the 40s and 50s fashion (New Look/Dior). Which is quite a stretch from the more casual jeans and top- style most women wear. Which - the American guy was part right - also is a practical choice lots of times. But according to most of the people in my neighbourhood I'm definitely different with my heels (I'm only 1.58m though😆), a different dress or skirt every day and even hats, petticoats and gloves. I love it and it makes me feel *me* the most. I can get nasty comments about it, but also plenty compliments. Living in a poorer suburb of Haarlem it's all jeans and simple jackets here. In the centre you certainly see different styles: preppy, alternative, 70s inspired, business chic or very Instagram-y. I however do think that these people have it all wrong to say Dutch girls or women wear whatever falls out of their closet. No freaking clue who they meet, but in my 43 years in this country I've maybe met only 1 person like that and it always had a reason (self esteem issues or they have a job that asks for very simple practical stuff). If we weren't into fashion then fashion magazines and shows wouldn't do so well here. Compared to Italy and perhaps France (but also the big cities there) we could do much better, but I've travelled and Dutch women definitely take care of themselves in comparison. I have both an academic and a creative background and lived in Utrecht and parts of Noord-Holland : the type they describe IS here, but you can't say it's THE Dutch girl. And thank heavens we don't do the hysterical- full- makeup designer clothing US highschool chick style! Speaking of the US: that lady saying we're often obese compared to her nation...🤣🤣🤣🤣. FFS... is she for real?! The average Dutch clothing size for women - according to the latest numbers I read in 2019, so it could be slightly altered now - is a EU40, which is a size 10US. I believe the average US size for women/girls is a 16! And that's even on a tinier woman height wise. Not to mention the truly morbid obese ones of which they also have a much larger relative %.
I have to disagree with the man about dutch women being taller. It has nothing to do with sunshine. Dutch people consume more milk and other dairy products. The calcium and protein in dairy products can make you grow taller and big boned, starting when you are young.
I'm an American, descended from early settlers(1600s, in what is now NY state) from the Netherlands, I am proud of that, and the people of that the Netherlands.
Love it! Some of my family emigrated to the US I think somewhere around 1800 (on both sides of my family). So technically I have lots of family in the US :) Also proud of that :)
Sad to see how women are having such a difficult time to compliment another woman. It says a lot about their insecurity, aint nothing wrong with a Dutch woman.

I’m an American who’s lived in Europe (Stockholm, Sweden) for 10 years now and I think Dutch women are by far the most beautiful and stylish in Europe! I go to the Netherlands several times per year and have many friends there and I’m always impressed with their unique clothing and stylish hair. Swedish women are obsessed with only buying hipster clothing brands and wanting to look exactly like everyone else whereas the Dutch are more individualistic (and that’s much more attractive in my opinion).
@Teringventje
He/she was giving us a compliment. Don't harass.
I have been to other European countries and I think this is very true. I was a bit offended by the Italian lady who says we throw something on... Because I think that's exactly what a Dutch woman doesn't do. But maybe she was talking more about make-up and hair. Yeah we don't care about that a lot.
Thank you
What? My husband, English, just to emphasize further difference would not agree fully with that. Dutch ladies can be stylish but that is so random. To see Dutch woman having make up done is a mostly magic or they are not native Dutch. Style here is very simple. Leather jacket, any type of Jean's, chinos, leggings will do and boots, never cleaned up and polished. And bag. Or MK or any other similar. Never seen women in suit, high heels. But if you consider the philosophy here just don't stick out. It's pretty natural.
Completely right your analysis. Perfect the parallelism between swedishes and Dutchs.
The general of Dutch women are pretty casual and independent imo. A lot of us don't really want to stand out from the crowd. It's de nuchterheid.

@@alexkonjanan5810 Oh, ja hoor. Ik zal de rest van de draadjes ook even bombarderen, wanneer ik tijd heb. Bedankt voor de tip. Was dit hele filmpje al vergeten.
Uit je reactie kan ik opmaken dat je nog nooit een punani hebt geroken, of dat die van je dinnetje juist enorm er naar riekt.
As I’m learning Dutch, I’ve been watching as many Dutch films as I’m able to find - which surprisingly and unfortunately is pretty limited (what I can find in the US but also generally from my research). I’ve just watched “Just Say Yes” and it was super jarring to see a lead actress in an actual film with a BBL and tons of facial filler. You see that everywhere in Hollywood and low brow/trashy/reality TV, but never in actual films. I wonder how accurate the representation of Dutch women is in that movie? Seems very different than what is described in the comments and this UA-cam video
Anthony from the USA is spot on.. we ARE totally into fashion, but imagine: doing your hair up, putting on make-up and a pretty dress then stepping outside to cycle to school or work, with hard wind (bye hair), rain (ruined makeup) and an average temperature of 18 degrees (brrr in a dress), makes no sense AT ALL.
哈哈，你说的对
They are right and wrong at the same time
It really depends on the person. I have seen really fashion oriented women, casual simple women, and also really unique, cute, and flashy on their own way.
The "doe normaal" is STRONG on this topic though. What they say, that there is a major part that just "blend in" with how they dress and style themselves is true.
But also there is something that i really appreciated when i was there, and it's that no matter how i dressed i didin't feel judged or observed at all. Everyone minds their own business, or at least don't show it haha. I can't wait to be back.
“Were obsessed with fashion” says the one wearing a polca dot top red glasses, pearl eaarings and hair that also looks electro shocked sooooo..
Meh, I like her style. It's kind of retro. Her hair is curly and curly hair cut short becomes very practical.
I don't agree with her opinion though.
Haha yeah when she was talking about elektrick shocked hair I instantly noticed her own hair.
@@Fleur-vI yeah me too lol
Tbf, the polka dots aren't really the problem, see 2:37
Her hair is naturally curly, which is different from the electro shock example she used, she basically meant that girl don't put much effort in their hair and probably just go out how they already are. It's different from natural hair, don't bash.
Me, a Dutch girl: not confident, very short, never showing my body off, don't own Nikes, hate animal print, don't own a leather jacket, having a hard time relaxing, don't have a pretty/charming face, not strong at all 🤣👌
I did recognise some other traits though, and I definitely know the type of girl they're talking about.
Tali same 😂
Red Bull blikje, leren jackje, slordig knotje met blonde highlights, harde oranje strepen op de wangen, lipgloss, lange nagels, getekende harde, dikke wenkbrauwen, witte gympen (duur merk), lichte skinny jeans, bruine handtas en mascara met 1 laagje nepwimpers en een gare fiets.
Da's er eentje.
En je hebt strakke paardenstaart of vlechtjes, bomberjack met groot stukje dode vos erop, kistjes/zwarte nikes, camouflage-broek, choker-ketting, sigarettenpeuk, blikje Monster Energy of Redbull, scooter, zwarte sporttas of rugzak, veel oorbellen, dunne en hoge getekende wenkbrauwen, piercings, ringen, gescheurde broek, kauwgom en een dikke en dure broekriem.
En dan nog; krulletjes of lang blond haar met laagjes, geen make up, normaal bloesje of truitje, opgetrokken mouwen over de handen, kat als huisdier, fiets met bloemetjes erop, leesboeken in de trein, giechelen, scheve tandjes, kleurrijke kamer, dunne kettinkjes, linnen tasjes, vrolijke jurkjes en gekke oorbellen met rare hangertjes eraan.

2:50 Did the lady with the print t-shirt, black jacket and straight hair hanging down call herself dressed up?
Pretty sure she was wearing a full face of make-up and styled her hair.
Dressed up for you can mean something else for another person. She might see that as dressed up and you might find it casual. We all have different opinions, that's life.
@@GreyMonix That is why a lot of these answers/comments in the video are pointless. It is all the perspective of the person who is 'judging' how others are dressed.
Cultural behaviour is also part of the differences between nationalities.

@@komkwam That's sadly true.
Dutch women are beautiful, tall, into fashion, straight forward, strong and self confident. Yes we take our kids to school on our bikes during a heavy storm and still look good doing it.

The one who ‘accuses’ Dutch women of having ‘electric’ hair has it herself and looks plain as can be (for an Italian...). The older US woman talks about large boned women in NL but comes from a country with lots of obese people who wear clothes that are way too tight 🤔.
Most of the other comments are also hardly recognisable to me (as a Dutch woman). But call me crazy.

Gel, gell everywhere!!!
Me as a dutch person (who travelled alot): this is sooo true lol. Indeed women here dont care as much about fashion and their appearance, and i think its becuz of the other thing mentioned sometimes in the video: they feel more comfortable and have more confidence with who they are.
I think they actually do. But it's more understated and refined. Nice hair and neat clean appearance, good skin, minimal makeup. Its a lot of attention to make it seem like "you just are naturally pretty".
@@collection6062 that minimalist attention you talk about shows that they don't care... these things don't require 'a lot of attention' but just a little bit. In other countries women also pay the basic attention to neat clean appearance, good skin, make up, but on top of that care more about fashion and looking extra pretty.
This is stereotypical of the “farm” girl from Netherlands, brought up for generations with healthy dairy products so they have strong bones and genetically very robust and strong. Just like the Dutch that came to South Africa. The men like me are all big and play rugby and eat a lot and are confident. We are very nice and straight forward people.

Hey I was looking for this comment! Especially the "electric shock" part - with that hair style - how dare she! 🤯
Just came in from cycling a few hours (needed to pick something up a few tows away) and was laughing my arse off when I heard this comment. Even after all this, my covid-style-hair looks better! (It should, after being blow-dried, wetted down, blow-dried again for many km's by Mother Nature!)
Nederlandse vrouwen zijn praktisch, ik werk op een kinderboerderij heeft t dan zin om mijn gezicht te plamuren? Nee, daar zie ik echt het nut niet van in, daarbij gaat het om de kwaliteit van mijn werk en dat word niet beter of slechter met make-up op mijn gezicht. En Nederlandse vrouwen zijn behoorlijk zelfstandig, wat we zelf kunnen hebben we geen man voor nodig, ook niet omdat dat gezien word als een mannenklusje. En hakken draag ik persoonlijk weinig omdat ik al meer dan lang genoeg van mezelf ben🤣
1:50 heeft ze haar eigen haar gezien??
Godelief dicke het zijn gewoon krullen?
Rashawna L. Ja maar ze zegt als Nederlanders geëlektrocuteerd worden gaan ze nog steeds zo naar buiten maar wat ik bedoelde was dat haar haar ook zo omhoog staat alsof het geëlektrocuteerd is
ja en vooral van die meid naast haar! wtf
Bij sommige van hun voel ik me echt beledigd! Wij Nederlandse meisjes/vrouwen zijn gewoon onszelf!
Nederland vind ik een geweldig land omdat ik als vrouw inderdaad vrij kan en mag zijn en onderscheid tussen mannen en vrouwen niet te groot is. Kus voor holland.😀
👍 land van gelijkheid. Maar een beetje onderscheid hoort er te zijn toch.
Amen
To the Americans in this video: Walmart.
Yeah that was my first thought too
I'm not Dutch but I've lived in the Netherlands for the past 5 years as a teenager and I swear the stereotypes in this videos are very loud
So, I am not the only one to think that Dutch people are very practical and simple in the way of living and dressing which is I like it. It fits me well.
Unless our women wear shirts with mold on their shoulders and jeans covered with mud, I think they're fine. Taking care of yourself is perceived differently in every country and therefore has a different meaning. Dutch women don't walk on high heels very frequently, but have you ever tried walking in high heels over our streets? Made of cobblestone? Do you want our women to have broken ankles? Also, wearing a tight dress with high heels just isn’t comfortable. Many Dutch women are cycling to work or to the station, nobody got time for that other shit. We like being comfortable, men and women alike, so jeans and sneakers are a big thing in The Netherlands. And when it comes to make-up, we like it natural. Just use your best features and enhance them just a little bit. Nothing more needed. Even better, go without make-up! Also, we favour social equality and directness. Don't expect Dutch men to hold the door open for you, because last time we checked, you had two functioning hands to do it yourself.
Wow perfect beschreven!
Leon, jij moet nog veel leren. Als een man galant is, is dat een dikke +. De meeste mannen zijn dat gewoon niet. Is niet Nederlands?? Maar inderdaad, we kunnen het zelf ook!😁
@@margaritalambregts8928 mijn man doet altijd deur voor me open vind zeker dikke plus punt . Vind jammer dat veel mannen zo simpel zijn geworden.
Not even Dutch but agree with everything said here. About the door tho, here in DR we hold the door for the people behind us, it's courtesy. Not like a worldwide rule tho.
Holding doors open is something you do when the woman has two heavy groceriebags, a disability, a broken arm, when it's an older lady or (occasionally) when you're on a date.
And also, randomly, if she's *right* behind you and you open a door.
But holding it open as a courtesy, every _damn_ time would be exhausting.
As a woman, I appreciate it every now and then. But when I'm on a date and I'm being "guided" through the city, like a fragile puppet, I feel insulted.
Dutch girls aren't just made to love, they're also made to last.
We see splitting the bill as equality. If I am on a date with a girl, I will feel uncomfortable if she wants to pay the entire bill. To me, it seems like she thinks that I cannot pay for myself. We favour social equality and directness; so, it would be disrespectful to not even ask for splitting the bill. Also, about being cheapskates, The Netherlands is actually very generous! We love to share our knowledge, our skills and even our money with everyone who needs it. The Netherlands is one of the biggest donators to development programs in the world. We spend MORE money on development projects than China, The United States and Japan all together and…. we don’t ask anything in return! It may look stupid in your eyes (go see an optician), but that’s just the way we are. Dutch people believe that they have a responsibility to share our skills, knowledge and wealth with people who need it.
I have Chinese parents, and what I love about the Netherlands is that social status matters a lot less than in China. In China people will look down on you if you are a construction worker, or even delivery person. This includes not wanting to look poor. Chinese people would even spend all their money just to buy something to not look poor. I rarely encounter that in the Netherlands.
Can't help myself... A guy from the UK saying there's not a lot of sun in the Netherlands? And funnily enough, the American lady on overweight girls' clothing, is exactly how I felt about American women. Not trying to be facetious, genuinely loving the content.
Some things are true for example that we are confident but I think you are in the wrong country. Every woman is different in her own way. Some woman like to dress up and some woman not that much. I went to Brazil and there you have also woman that like to dress up en some woman not so what is wrong with that. The important thing is that you feel confident and beautiful.
I love the explanation of the guy in the dark green shirt! It indeed doesn't make sense to wear a lot of make up when its windy
I think these people didn't meet much Dutch girls. They seem to have a lot of bias.
While I think Dutch girls are very versatile and openminded and practical.
You have them in all sorts, from wearing high heels vs boots, from natural make up vs no make up vs expressive make up. Fashionistas vs have your own style Etc. Etc. About all woman topics.
Dutch girls are pretty practical and confident, from all the girls I've met here. I like it. It's really refreshing especially since you gotta bike everywhere lol.
I want an all Anthony video! Love to hear him talk and be so loving of this small country ❤
Hes spitting facts ;p
Just an ordinary opinion from dutch folks 🙃
I am actually a girl from the Netherlands and I travel much through the Netherlands so I actually have friends all around and well.. i get that most of these things that are said are they’re look on “dutch girls” but I just could not disagree more when listening to them..
like I did find the part where they where talking about our freedom and own choices of what we wanted to be very precise on what is actually very common here,
But when they were talking about that we as “woman in general” feel less insecure about ourselves and or don’t really care about how we dress Really irrelevant, many woman and or girls are of course sometimes insecure about themselves, and yes sometimes we say “F it” ya know but most of the time it’s just a mask to put on to look stronger.. I actually did discuss these story’s with more of my family and friends but most of us agree that, : yes we like to wear what is comfortable and or what feels right but it doesn’t have to mean that that’s“not stylish “ we are all different yet very the same..as one of my friends said to me: “it is many times talk like this that actually sometimes are the cause of some girls thinking they need to change because you are revering to “Girls” or well said people who are under the age of 18, these girls are most of the time really insecure about themselves (wow even In the Netherlands?? YES) and just want to get to adulthood without people shaming they’re body’s or they’re dressing style and many teenage girls are very insecure about they’re skin so yea it’s sometimes kinda rude to point out the fact “the Girls rarely wear make-up” wich btw is not always true if you are actually revering to girls under 18 here than I can say that many normal school girls wear makeup”.
I am really not attacking these people but some things just did not click for me like.. We are all woman and we all know how hard it is to be judged so much on our appearance, we don’t just take what falls out of our closet of course not it falls out off the closet because we are just desperate to find that one thing in there that we needed to wear on this specific day.
You don’t have to agree with me and all these people that I discussed this with whoem (Most) of them are all originally from The Netherlands
Sincerely from.. Just a girl from The Netherlands ✨
Hope you’re having a great day 🌷
"They wear not high heels.. "
That's because we are allready tall.
Ikzelf ben Nederlander, maar ik heb de grootste moeite met Nederlandse meisjes en vrouwen. Eigenwijs, afstandelijk, onbegrijpelijk en kil. Buitenlandse meisjes zijn veel gemakkelijker en beter benaderbaar. Ik ben 53 en de laatste keer dat ik verliefd was, was veertig jaar geleden. Ik ben uiteindelijk getrouwd met een Indonesische.

Dutch woman are more ladyblike/feminine than a tomboy, but also more of a tomboy than being a ladylike/feminine. The one made the remark of dutch woman being homogenous is very true. It's like the meme of all blond are alike, it kind of fit here. But that is also for the dutch man not just woman. Its quite homogenous here how people dress and act.
Dutch don't like to stand out, but if they do everybody notices.
Agreed 100 💯
In my humble opinion most Dutch women who are into heels, make up and feminine clothing are mostly Dutchies from immigrant parents.
One time, I asked my Dutch boyfriend what nationality is the prettiest, he said Swedish. There are of course beautiful women in every nationality (I reminded him Doutzen Kroes is a gorgeous Dutch) but he said that most of Swedish women he saw/meet are all pretty/beautiful.
Nope, I don’t have any Swedish blood lol. I’m full blooded Filipina.
Lol that's the Dutch for you. Telling his asian, brown haired, brown eyed girlfriend straight out he prefers blonde, blue eyed european woman. If nothing else the Dutch are predictable direct.
@@jrsuk1170 such a great answer 👍
JRS UK Hahaha. I love his honesty- makes him so genuine and authentic. As for his opinion, I don’t mind it as I know I’m the prettiest in his eyes 😂 and I adore his answer actually because tons of blonde women lust after him. And he makes me feel like a goddess of my own ☺️
My norwegian bf also said swedish girls are considered the prettiest in scandinavia because of russian mixture in them
M D Russian/Ukrainian women are the most beautiful
Dutch women have always been practical and very down to earth.
Same goes for the men.
Im Brazilian and I lived in the Netherlands, a lot of things said here are just plain wrong. Overweight? No, the Netherlands have of the lowest obesity rates in the developed world. Some things are true though, like what the girl from Hungary said about it being very homogoneous in the way people dress and act, there is a big culture of conformity.
Most of what these people say is so true. Super casual style, everyone looks the same and woman hardly ever high heals. And idd, theres no use of doing our hair, step outside and the wind and humidity have ruined it all 🤣
I wish the question had been phrased, "What do you think about Dutch women?" Meisjes = girls. Vrouwen = woman.
I don't know what kind of experience they had with dutch girls, but I don't recognize a thing they ment in this video, except the tall part :)
Holy moly, the girl from Pakistan looks amazing 🤓
We might not be the prettiest ones or the best dressed but we're at least not shallow and arrogant like Italians for whom only their looks concern. Dutch ladies are naturals: life isn't about looking good, it about being happy and be good to others
Erg leuk omte zien,ik be al meer als 60 jaar in ZA,en onthou nog veel van alles !
I'm from the Netherlands and come from Limburg, which is a bit more conservative. But still, in my youth I had many girlfriends and most of them did the first step instead of me. I was a bit slow (or shy)....That's how Dutch women were when i was young... not waiting for the guy...
It hasn't changed much. I think men are even more terrified now, to make the first move, as even winking at a woman could be considered sexual harrasment nowadays. Which is complete rubbish. On topic: truly hope chivalry isn't completely dead. If a man opens the door for you, it's just nice. Doesn't make anyone less independent.
Dutch women don't wear high heels because they are usually tall. However, they love their boots!
well I found out that Dutch girls are just naturally cute
Dutch women do appreciate holding the door and taking their coats, although its less of a necessity. In my relationship, my girlfriend and i are equal, although i insist to carry the heavier stuff, because its more practical... Doesn't mean she doesn't carry stuff at all.
Dutch women do not like restrictions, inequality and they do like to be most independant.
Even in household chores, we both do things we're best at. Washing is divided into seperate parts, she divides the clothes and operates the machine, whilst i hang it up, fold it and put it back in all clausets. (except for hers, she has her own ways of putting the clothes back)
Practical and pretty is what girls commonly like, in the Netherlands.
We always open the door if she comes home with the groceries by bike in the rain. We thankfully take the beer out of the bags to help her, take a glass and sit on the couch.
The Dutch lead the way in biking. Love negotiating ADam. Love the Dutch and the Netherlands.
It's sad that traits which are leftovers from a more chauvinistic era (paying for the woman - she wouldn't have her own money; opening doors - she's too weak to fend for herself; etc) are considered "lacking" by some of these people's cultures.
Let me keep my independence, flats, and certainty in my own value and skill as a human - who cares about my sex.
Note to the italian girl (and others): Milano is like a big catwalk. Its not representative for the rest of italy. In the country sides of italy (and other countries), people have electric hair, wear sportsuits, nikes, and other confortabel suits. I slept on different italian campings with only italian people, and they are not as fashionable as in the big city, which is totalmente a posto.
I have to agree with being confident. I think it’s how they (most are) raised as kids.
Also Fedor describing Russian and NL society at 5.06 made me laugh. It’s funny because it’s true 😂
I want a dutch girl, they're perfect for me..
To be fair, our (dutch) hair is often messy, because the weather is crappy. We live in a very windy country, that get’s humid in the summer aswell. Every time my hair is nicely done, our obnoxious weather ruins it. Riding bicycle doesn’t match well with neat hairdo’s either.
Me being Dutch: I’m 16 and 1.56m
I wear oversized clothes because I’m not confident about my body...

Ik vind dit best wel herkenbaar bij sommige vrouwen die langskomen waar ik werk. Maar je kan niet iedereen op dezelfde manier beschrijven.
In some ways I feel attacked but flattered at the same time 😂 Americans and Dutch people are really alike... it’s just that we Dutch people are a bit more direct and stuff. But fashion and confidence is pretty much at the same level, that’s what I think though.
i've lived in america for a year, clothing is really diffrent.
I can definitely agree on this, sad thing is. Most girls in my town (yes i am dutch) do care About what they look like before they leave their house and wear a lot of designer and/or mainstream clothes. Litteraly so many girls here try to look the same as each other ‘cause it feels safe to them. Which is a shame because i can agree that our girls are Unique and beautiful!

I think they're trying to make themselves feel better by saying that Dutch girls are "more confident". Thats a personal thing. And about "they wear too short dresses" that's a choice of someone. I mean these arguments are all so personal
The Italian girl (the one with the black hair) says we are obsessed with fashion and she is the worst dressed of all the people in the video. Hahaha
Man nothing beats a dutch women. Their confidence and attidude is so damn amazing. The girls actually do take their time to look good, people here saying they don't is bullshit. Sure they wear more casual cause of the practically of being here, but doesn't mean they don't look good in them. A dutch women always looks good regardless of the weather. Them being so independent adds another flavour to it. Prolly 1 of the best type of girls you can find anywhere.
Most of the people on the video just judge us for 7 minutes straight
I think everyone should wear what they want, even if they are a little larger
To bad, but as a typical dutch girl, i must say there is a kind of truth in what these people say about dutch girls🤭😂
I live in Nederland, and one thing I have noticed about the women here in general, they use very little make up or none at all.
1:52 Electric shock, that’s how your hair looks. XD
hahahaha
As a dutch girl: I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT COUNTRY THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT 🤷🏽♀️
3:27 : *VMBO girls have left the chat*
I'm Dutch and I do stand out A LOT here fashion wise, seeing as I've adopted a modern variant of the 40s and 50s fashion (New Look/Dior). Which is quite a stretch from the more casual jeans and top- style most women wear. Which - the American guy was part right - also is a practical choice lots of times. But according to most of the people in my neighbourhood I'm definitely different with my heels (I'm only 1.58m though😆), a different dress or skirt every day and even hats, petticoats and gloves. I love it and it makes me feel *me* the most. I can get nasty comments about it, but also plenty compliments. Living in a poorer suburb of Haarlem it's all jeans and simple jackets here. In the centre you certainly see different styles: preppy, alternative, 70s inspired, business chic or very Instagram-y.
I however do think that these people have it all wrong to say Dutch girls or women wear whatever falls out of their closet. No freaking clue who they meet, but in my 43 years in this country I've maybe met only 1 person like that and it always had a reason (self esteem issues or they have a job that asks for very simple practical stuff).
If we weren't into fashion then fashion magazines and shows wouldn't do so well here.
Compared to Italy and perhaps France (but also the big cities there) we could do much better, but I've travelled and Dutch women definitely take care of themselves in comparison. I have both an academic and a creative background and lived in Utrecht and parts of Noord-Holland : the type they describe IS here, but you can't say it's THE Dutch girl.
And thank heavens we don't do the hysterical- full- makeup designer clothing US highschool chick style!
Speaking of the US: that lady saying we're often obese compared to her nation...🤣🤣🤣🤣. FFS... is she for real?! The average Dutch clothing size for women - according to the latest numbers I read in 2019, so it could be slightly altered now - is a EU40, which is a size 10US. I believe the average US size for women/girls is a 16! And that's even on a tinier woman height wise. Not to mention the truly morbid obese ones of which they also have a much larger relative %.
Could you elaborate on that?
I have to disagree with the man about dutch women being taller. It has nothing to do with sunshine. Dutch people consume more milk and other dairy products. The calcium and protein in dairy products can make you grow taller and big boned, starting when you are young.
It was a joke from the men. A bad one I agree😂😂

Sad to see how women are having such a difficult time to compliment another woman.
It says a lot about their insecurity, aint nothing wrong with a Dutch woman.
Question: What do you think about Dutch girls
Answer: All of them talking about what clothes they wear
Says a lot doesn't it?
