Not all the dutch have lisps, it is a bit of a short-sighted question.

But to answer the question, if it may sound like they have lisps,

it is because when speaking the dutch language, the muscles of the mouth are held much tigher than they are supposed to be held when speaking english.

This may cause a slight lisp when a dutchmen speaks english.
