Venus: Dance legends: Gender challenges and life choicesWho would choose to change gender at the pinnacle of their careers in order to be truly themselves? This is the story of Venus, a legend in the world of dance.
Plagued by her gender identity, she experienced a bumpy path in life, but in the end, she chose to give up everything to pursue her true self. Born in 1967 into an ordinary family, Venus has had distinctly feminine traits since she was a child, which has made her difficult with her gender identity.
She was the first Chinese to receive a scholarship from the American Academy of the Arts, founded the first private dance institution in China, and became famous for a while. However, the pinnacle of her career did not satisfy her heart.
In 1995, she chose to metamorphose, from male to female. She survived a difficult 16-hour operation, but with it was permanent disability caused by medical malpractice.

When you meet love and start a family, Venus vividly shows the meaning of life with its real life experience. Let's step into her world and listen to the stories that few people know.
Gender confusion as a girl: Finding a sense of belonging in the company of womenIn 1967, Jin Xing was born in Liaoning, China, where her father was busy with work and she was close to her mother from an early age.
When she was young, she always bathed with her mother, and her knowledge of the female body made her feel natural. But as the years passed, this intimacy was gradually hindered.
Venus begins to feel a little uncomfortable in the group bathhouse, and she chooses to hide behind some handsome boys so that she can feel at ease. During the school day, Venus always plays with the girls and never plays games with the boys.
She really likes the girls to play sandbags, jumping bands and playing house. Playing with girls for a long time gave Venus the nickname "Little Girl". Although this nickname was a little happy in Venus's heart, she still hoped to be able to play with boys.
Every day when she came home from school, she would put on her mother's and sister's clothes and look at her in front of the mirror repeatedly. When her mother found out about her interest, she didn't particularly care.
Venus, who has been troubled since she was a child, has always longed for a woman's identity, but she has no choice but to give birth to the wrong gender, so that she has always hidden pain in her heart. However, she did not give up on her dream, but strengthened her determination to learn dance.
In the face of her mother's opposition, Venus repeatedly told her dream in front of her mother every day, and finally won her mother's understanding and support. Since then, Venus has embarked on the road of dance, with tenacity and indomitable spirit, through hard training, successfully become a rising star in the dance world, and emerge in international awards.
Her experience tells us that as long as we have dreams and determination, we will be able to break through the routine and achieve ourselves.
At the age of 9, Jin Xing was admitted to the Shenyang Advance Song and Dance Troupe with excellent results, and the strict training of the song and dance troupe made her dance level improve rapidly. At the age of 12, he was admitted to the Dance Department of the Military Art Academy for further study, and won major domestic dance awards with his outstanding talent.
She dissipated the masculinity of men's pointe dancing and made it look beautiful and moving, and she was promoted to the military rank. At the age of 20, he was sponsored by the state to study dance in the United States, and soon became a principal dancer after arriving in the United States, shining on the international stage.
She was the first Chinese dancer to receive a scholarship from the American Academy of Arts and is a professor at the Royal Academy of Dance in Belgium. Although several countries wanted her to stay, she still chose to return to China and accept the invitation of the country's Ministry of Culture.
She founded her own private dance organization and was awarded the rank of colonel. While the fame of the dance world is in full swing, Venus is in inner pain and confusion.
Her dreams were shattered due to medical malpractice. Despite the success of her career, she is still plagued by the wrong gender. At the age of 28, she was determined to change her fate and underwent gender reassignment surgery.
In 1995, Venus firmly chose to undergo gender transition surgery, facing a 16-hour life-long challenge. During the operation, she experienced multiple coma, and the danger of her life threatened her all the time, but she still insisted on completing the whole process.
When she reopened her eyes, she finally gained the female identity she had always dreamed of. However, just as she was about to enjoy the joy of a new life, a medical accident caused severe nerve damage in her left leg, which turned her into a second-degree disability.
Jin Xing, who once caused a sensation in the international dance scene, instantly lost her dancing ability. Looking at her dream of dancing that had been shattered, she fell into despair like never before.
Persistently pursue dreams in difficult situations, and regain confidence with perseverance. When everything seems hopeless, what is the power that brings Venus back to life and finds itself? That is her love and dedication to the art of dance.
Despite the heavy blows, she still persevered in the face of difficulties, devoted herself to training, and gradually recovered her physical functions with countless times of perseverance. In the end, she bravely stood on the stage and completed her adherence to the life of dance art.
However, society's misunderstanding and discrimination against her has never stopped. Many people look at this gender changer in a strange light, and judge her identity choice. In the face of doubt, Venus never flinched.
I only have one life, and no one can shake my passion and determination to pursue dance. The work of hosting allowed her to walk through loneliness and respond to all doubts with strength. In 2015, she successfully crossed over to become a host and took over the famous talk show "Venus Show".
Her sharp style and courage to expose the inside story of the entertainment industry made her quickly win the love of the audience. Although the truth revealed has upset many, she firmly believes that it is to make the industry more transparent and fair.
Although this offended some bigwigs in the entertainment industry, she still stuck to her beliefs and did not back down.
Although Jin Xing was repeatedly boycotted and the show was forced to stop broadcasting, she was not discouraged, but focused more on her dance career, and proved with her strength that no one could silence her. In 2004, she met true love on the plane, and the German man Hans was attracted by her unique temperament, boldly confessed, and took the initiative to ask for a relationship.
Now, they have three adopted children, and Venus is full of maternal aura.
At first, Venus didn't expect the relationship, but the two had a good conversation and hit each other off. When they were separated, they stayed with each other *** and then kept in touch frequently.
In the end, Venus also accepted this relationship, and the relationship between the two officially began. Although Venus's mother disagreed, Hans persevered in her pursuit. He went home many times to meet his mother-in-law, and finally touched her heart.
In 2005, they had a grand wedding in Germany. Hans was full of love and tolerance for Venus and accompanied her through many difficult days.
The two had a happy married life, but Venus was unable to have children due to physical reasons. So they decided to adopt three children, a boy and two girls. Venus pampered these three children infinitely with maternal love and care.
Children accept the fact that Venus has changed from male to female and will ask about her past, and Venus is more than willing to share.
A happy family of four has won the envy and praise of everyone. Despite many ups and downs, she, in her 50s, is still on the path of dance art.
Now, she has returned to the public eye, using the live broadcast platform to share her life experience and convey positive energy. In this process, what we see is a legendary woman who supports herself with tenacity and deep love.
