I find the Dutch can be understanding, and will show vulnerability to you. But they are more pragmatic than many cultures (in my observation), but I'd say that's a good thing. I'm not talking about not showing emotion, I'm talking about being insensitive to suffering. I think the Anglo-Saxon propensity for this is the reason why most people who do mass shootings at schools or workplaces are either Anglos (Columbine shooters), Anglicized (Kimveer Gill, the East Indian-Canadian who shot up Dawson College in Montreal), or Anglophiles (Anders Behring Breivik).
