Yes Robin it is.
It translates: "spending time in trouble".

But it doesn't have anything to do with where you live.

Going 'dutch' also means both the man and the woman pay their own way on a date, etc.

I thought that going dutch much more ment..Giving your date a bunch of tulip flowers wearing your wooden shoes and take her to a restaurant where she will pay not her own way..but she is so emancipated that she will pay both ways

Now you're talking!

Thanks for adding that Dennis.

Well, are there any Dutch on our forum?  Don't be shy- post and let us know!!

Double-dutch jumproping should be in the Olympics.  It is awesome!!  And of course my favorite is DOUBLE DUTCH CHOCOLATE

My ancestors lived in Holland a couple of generations before coming to the U.S.


I went to Holland once back in the 70's.  Yikes, I loved it, but too many "hippies" from America over there!!
