A way to describe a person who is overly-afraid of personal or public confrontation with the direct goal of neutrality in all uncomfortable situations.
A person that is "Being Swiss," generally lets other people take advantage of them, wants everyone to like them, and is completely neutral in situations that don't warrant it, at the expense of their dignity, personal code of ethics, and others' respect.
Typical responses to perfectly acceptable instances of confrontation include:
1. "I'm over it."
2. "Hey...Each to his own."
3. "It's all good." (When they know it's not).
4. "I'm just sayin'.
