The word "boy" does not exist for her, she has buried the past and all the childhood experiences that hurt her to the "bottom of the earth".

She simply listened to her deepest self and recognized what she always was. Gender reassignment surgery was a decision she made without thinking.

Mina Orfanou is an artist of many talents. Besides acting, another favorite form of expression for her is painting. Take the risk, she left her island at a very young age and chased her dreams and the life she dreamed of. She can be proud that she achieved her goals while maintaining her dignity.

Panos Koutras chose her for the film "Strella" for which she received an award for her performance, while this year we see her in a different role in "The Kings".

She is cultured, she knows how to talk and escapes the stereotype that transgender means sidewalks and drugs. He managed to escape the trap of underestimation and not get lost...

She owes the quality and values ​​she has as a person to her family and the way she grew up.

In the confessional interview he gave to the magazine "Life&Style" gave her take on prostitution and satisfied the curiosity of those wondering if she's ever hit the pavement.

"Prostitution for you is something acceptable;»
"Christ approached the harlot first. People approached her with stoning. Hats off to those who do this work, because he wants guts. A mother may prostitute herself to save her child. Most, it is also a matter of survival. At that time, these women don't kill. Nor do they sell their souls. Because if they sold her they couldn't go with a second customer. They lend their bodies for five minutes. I only criticize jobs that cause death to others, like being a drug dealer or trading bodies for prostitution”.

"Have you ever walked a sidewalk?;»
"No. I never got to that point.".

"You could if the going got tough;»
"If the going gets tough, you have other things to do. This is the easy fix. Pure money. A woman who prostitutes herself, he can make the same amount of money in a day as someone makes in a month. Money is sweet to some people".

“You consider yourself not of this world;»
"Each of us belongs to another world. My hands are shaking. If I don't make it out of acting, I will get out of my painting and crafts. If I don't make any of them, I will put on a rasa and go to live with my aunt, who is a nun. I will also eat my fresh eggs, I will also drink my fresh milk!».

"They look at you differently on the street;»
"I don't think I look what I am, for sure, when I leave the house I don't wear a tag that says ”Hello, I'm transgender”. I feel though, that people expect me to tell them things that I have never done in my life".

“That sign anyway, he put you in the field and offered you publicity…”
"No. I pulled her off me and threw her. I decided to declare, for the last time, that I am transgender. The time has come, at last, to bury in the core of the earth all that they have said about me. I will never do another interview to talk about my past. I wasn't born to give interviews".
