  Going Dutch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Going Dutch is a slang term that means that each person eating at a restaurant or paying admission for entertainment pays for himself or herself, rather than one person paying for everyone.
Dutch courage, Dutch uncle, Dutch wife, were created because the Netherlands used to be a great rival to England in the 17th century (especially the Dutch East India Company).
In Spain, "going Dutch" is attributed to Catalans, due to a stereotype that they are greedy.

 The Mystery of Datch Waifu, Solved! : Gizmodo
‘Dutch Wife’ describes a rattan bolster used in hot, humid countries to keep a sleeper’s limbs suspended away from their sticky sheets, “called thus because it was round, fat and just lay there.” More than likely it originates from outside of Japan, and is possibly even a term they picked up from the English.
When a Dutch man was stationed in a country (I forgot which) in Southeast Asia a long time ago, he found that it was so hot even at night that he could hardly sleep.
Dutch wife: An open frame constructed of cane, originally used in the Dutch East Indies and other hot countries to rest the limbs in bed; also a bolster used for the same purpose.

Their eldest two daughters had married substantial Dutch citizens of Albany, and Joanna was betrothed to a successful and self-satisfied sea-trader, Captain Batavius De Vries; but, for the charming Katherine, Lysbet had dreamed of some higher advancement.
She rallied him about his Dutch wife, commended her fifty thousand pounds of fortune, laughed at his constancy for a whole year, and claimed his social service for herself and his cousin, Lady Arabella Suffolk—a fashionable coquette with an indulgent old husband.
He loved his wife tenderly, but was susceptible to the beauty and attractiveness of other women, and spent his days and nights in a perpetual round of social folly.

 Amazon.ca: Books: The Dutch Wife   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
Eric McCormack's Dutch Wife is a bewitching and singularly odd little novel, an amazingly coherent mélange of small-town CanLit and world-travelling fantasy that recalls Poe, Monty Python, Melville, '50s B movies, Indiana Jones, and Henry James.
Thomas is soon hospitalized for a mortal illness, and our narrator becomes privy to his remarkable family history--a story that involves husband-swapping, anthropological adventures in Peru and the South Pacific, true love lost to the claws of death, plague-ridden shiploads of exotic animals, a town populated by one-legged Scotsmen, and more.
The Dutch Wife is a compulsively readable novel, seductive enough to wholly escape the boundaries of credibility.

I think these dolls are called “Dutch Lady” because of the fact that most/ a lot of people believe the outright cliche of Dutchies being inexpensive and/or paying for themselves.
The reason these thigns are called ‘Dutch Wives’, i think, is because of the fact that in asian countries (and other places where it’s hot) a lot of people sleep with a cylindrical pillow of about 30X150 CM to ‘hug around’ and keep limbs from sticking to eachother.

It’s called The Dutch Wife and it’s by Eric McCormack.
So in The Dutch Wife the initial narrator tells us the story of a man he meets who in turn tells him a story of his adventures which includes meeting others who tell him stories.
The art in all this lies in making compelling and engaging characters of all the narrators, making their stories interesting, and bringing all these stories, which initially seem disparate, together so they dovetail in the end and we see how it all relates.
