What creatures are "Belgians"?

After last week's lecture, a student came to see me. She had an article with her from her local newspaper. The article is about how foreigners look at Belgians. Here is the English summary:

• Belgians have a mentality of "I don't care";
• Belgians are independent, but always try to get rid of responsibilities;
• Germans and French people know that the Belgians are pro-European, but are also afraid of non-European cultures;
• British people know that Belgians are very proud of their houses;
• Americans think Belgians are reliable and practical people.

This is not how Belgians see themselves. It's how foreigners see Belgians. Do you agree? Or (being a decent Belgian) don't you care?
