苏州人往往被女性化,什么优美、柔和、文静、高雅;姑娘们则被誉为小家碧玉、大家闺秀,还有那够不上“碧玉”的也被呼之为“阿姐”。苏州人之所以被女性化,我认为其诱因是语言,是那要命的吴侬软语。吴侬软语出自文静、高雅的女士之口,确实是优美柔和,婉转动听。我曾陪一位美国作家参观苏州刺绣厂,由刺绣名家朱凤女士讲解。朱 Suzhou people are often feminine, what beautiful, soft, quiet, elegant; girls are known as Xiaojiabiyu, ladylike, there is not enough “Jasper” is also called “A sister” .
