On Friday i meet a guy he is close to my age and he is dutch and amish. I did talk to him on the bus and i thought he might be bored so i try to entertain him. I just realize he blush at me, no guy ever blush at me and i can tell he is interested in me. we talk about hourses and he said you should try to ride my horse. When he said that i was like whoa he likes me big time and When i got off the bus he took a disposal camera and got me in it and i took a picture of him to, he let me take his picture. I'm so glad he was their. Oh yeah he did smile at me, every time i talk about him i always remember him, that's how hot he is. Not making this up. So has anyone meet a amish slash dutch person or people?

Amish are German, not Dutch.

When they first came to America, they probably said they were "Deutsch"
when asked where they came from. So, they are Pennsylvania Deutsch, not Dutch.

Dutch are Nederlanders.

Amish teach all their kids to speak German. It's a requirement in their schools.


One of my co-workers, years ago, came from the Netherlands. Besides Dutch and English, she also spoke German, French, and Spanish.

Amish is a religion. You could be Egyptian and still Amish. And he must be during the time they're allowed to leave the community for a few years to see if they want to stay Amish or not.

Then, doesn't that make the Amish lifestyle like an Ethnic tradition? Kinda like Japanese lifestyle vs French?

Technically it's a life style, but you can join a community.

No. Ethnically, they're Americans of German ancestry. Their religion is Anabaptist Christian.


Do you know what they call a man with his fist up a horse's butt?

An Amish mechanic.
