Is Amsterdamn really like that?
yes it is Ive been there a few times and some streets near the grachtne are just whore houses als it isnt that hard to come across a coffe shop in the city
EDIT: though the city also has normal stores/buildings
Also a dutchie over here, but before we also start spreading the wrong stereotypes to my beloved Escapist, I'd like to make a correction here.

First of all, soft drugs and hard drugs. Hard drugs are Illegal no matter what age you are. Soft drugs however, are being treated more or less like public alcohol consumption in the US. Selling Soft drugs is Legal for "coffeeshops" with a permit. They however are not officially allowed to buy softdrugs from a supplier, though the supply end is rarely enforced by the police.

In the last few years, most cities have enforced slightly stricter rules on drugs users, mainly in how hard the police handle public consumption. It is still legal to carry upto 4 grams of Soft drugs (weed and hasj).

Amsterdam is more or less an exception to the rule, as the enforcement doesn't focus too much on what happens in and around most of it's coffeeshops. Mainly the once in the old city heart, where most tourists hang. On the account of hookers there, they are allowed to hold shop in the Red light district, fondly referenced to as "de Wallen".

Feel free to ask questions towards me as well in case you need a in depth explanation.

Here's a question:

Why do people who live in slightly abnormal places or belong to slightly abnormal groups start Q & A threads like the beret wearing tosser at the conclusion of his latest film's premiere?

But for a non-pricky question:

You come froom Hol-land, isent daht vierd? (Cookie for reference...I'm not trying to be racist).
How about no, you crazy dutch bastard?

OT: I've no real interest in this, but...

How's the food at the schools? (Hope to God someone hasn't asked that yet...)

Are you...No that won't work... How often do you... That'll get me suspended... er...

What's your favourite kind of ice cream?

[small]That'll work.[/small]
I like vannila or coffee icecream
Firstly, coffee ice-cream rocks. I'm glad I finally found someone who agrees :3

Secondly: Is the legal drinking age 16? And I hear you're taught sex education from a very young age - do you think that's decreased teenage pregnancy in Holland? And that it's maybe a system we should implement in our own countries, respectively?

Sorry if that's a few questions - just curious!

yes the legal drinking age is 16 bt you need to be 18 to drink heavy stuff (like Vodka) also yes sex-ed is teached at a young age but I,m not sure about the teen pregnancy thing it could be its more hyped in the US

Do you take dutch as a first or second language?

Have you ever had your drink spiked?

Can you sell me your Swedish clogs?

Do you have a pair of wings I could use?

How different is Dutch from Afrikaans?

Can you guess where I live?

Did you sell my brother that heroin?

Do you know the meaning of life?

Where do babies come from?

What time is it?

Why did you put yourself up to a thread like this?

Are these questions getting annoying?

Could you teach me Dutch in 4 hours?

May I buy your soul?

May I buy your soul cheaply?

Why the heck do you people eat mayonnaise with chips? I will never understand that!

Is that stupid trend still going on where people would record videos of themselves jumping around to electric music? I forgot what it was called, but i heard it was the single most irritating fad to have come out of Holland.

I'm going on a road trip round Europe with a friend next year and we're ending in Holland. Where would you recommend we go?

Ok here's a question, how come they never do English dubs of their movies? Dutch cinema is getting up to par to Hollywood. Last two Dutch movies I've seen, Black Book and The Alzheimer Case, would have been somewhat successful here in the states, but most American's are stupid and can't handle reading a movie.

I do. Most of the politicians are just mere puppets of the interests they have in business related things than truely serving the needs of the public. And if we do get a right-winged coalition, we are marching straight into our own damnation. But that's just my opinion, of course.
