This 2016 International Conference on the Jin Xing phenomenon welcomes submissions in Chinese and English from all over the world. The conference will explore the Jin Xing phenomenon in contemporary Chinese society and examine Chinese gender politics and feminist issues. 

2016年金星现象国际学术研讨会欢迎来自全世界的中英文相关课题的研究论文。大会主要讨论当前中国社会的金星现象以及女性主义话题。

The year of 2016 in China is called “the year of cyber celebrities.” Women’s rise as cyber celebrities and become phenomenal in China have drawn critical attention in academia. Among them Jin Xing, the brightest star in today’s China, is a transgender woman, an actress, an author, a pioneer in the Chinese contemporary dance, a judge for reality TV dancing competitions, and a TV personality who runs her own talk show. She is a fearless fighter against transphobia and gender-based discrimination. She is a mother of three adopted children, a loving wife with a loving German husband, a role model of moral integrity and an advocate of social justice. She is currently the most talked-about and the most controversial celebrity in China with millions of fans loving her and supporting her, as well as numerous enemies who hate her and disparage her. No matter what, she has unquestionably played an instrumental role in educating people in China about the complexity of genders and sexualities and the universality of human nature. 

2016年被称作是中国的“网红年”。在中国，女性作为网络红人并成为热点话题，引起学术界的高度关注。网络红人中最耀眼的一位当属金星。她是当前中国最耀眼的明星。她是一个变性女人，是演员、作家、中国现代舞的拓荒者，是电视舞蹈真人秀的评委，是拥有自己的脱口秀的电视名人。她是一个大无畏者，不屈不挠地同对于变性人的恐惧和性别歧视做斗争。她是三个领养儿童的母亲，是一个充满爱心的妻子，拥有一个充满爱心的德国丈夫。她是一个道德模范，也是社会正义的拥护者。她现在中国妇孺皆知，也是最具有争议的名人。不管人们如何评价，毫无疑问她在向中国人普及性别与性的复杂性与人性的共通性上起到了里程碑的作用。
