It's not exactly true that people from The Netherlands specifically like to be called dutch, it's just that they consider it a fact of life that the English language has come up with that term. And it's considered somewhat funny that a small country like theirs has three uncorrelated words (Netherlands, Dutch and Holland) to identify it. Historically "Dutch" refers to "Diets", the German dialect that formed the basis for the language of the Netherlands, so there's no reason to dislike the word. Quite a few Dutch people know that Dutch also means other things in English, but then again in the Dutch language there are similar terms the other way around. For instance a "Dutch Treat" translates to "Amerkaans feestje" (American party).
