That
Mary Ebone Calimbayan Cimafranca is
more than just a pretty face is amply proven by the Miss Teen Tagbilaran 2012
crown and Miss Photogenic, Best in Casual Wear, Best in Swimsuit and Best in
Gown awards during the Miss Teen Tagbilaran just held recently in the City of
Friendship.

That
Mary Ebone Calimbayan Cimafranca gives a straight answer that her mother is her
role model.
“For
me, the greatest woman would be my mother. Not only because she has supported
me all throughout my life, but since before school she has taught me moral values
which I can apply at home and in school,” says Ebone during the pageant’s Q and
A portion.
“And
I know that without my mother, I wouldn't be the strong and confident woman
that I am today,” adds the 16-year-old lass from Poblacion 1 whom Bared
has interviewed after winning the crown facilitated by Bohol’s fashion
icon EJ Relampagos ( EJ’s boutique
is located at 51 Pamaong Ext., Cogon District, Tagbilaran City, Cell No: 09498383173, Tel. No: 416-1184), Ebone’s
stylist and manager.
Her
parents, Engr. Cresente and Maria Eva Cimafranca
(nee Calimbayan), are very proud of their daughter’s achievement.
An
Aries (March 31), Ebone stands 5’6”, weighs 113 lbs., measures 36-25-36, and
wears small-size shirt and size-8.5 shoes. She finished high school last March
at Holy Spirit School-Tagbilaran and she’s planning to take up broadcast
journalism in Miriam College.
She
has more to say.
How would you
convince people here and abroad that it’s more fun in Bohol?
“I would use the medium of information that is prominent to us teenagers of today which is social media. I would showcase the true beauty of Bohol to everyone and I'll see to it that tourism can be promoted here in God's little paradise.”

Should transgender be
allowed to compete in beauty contests for women?
“I don't have any problems with transgender people, because I consider them very loving, fun, and sensible. In my own opinion, if the person has passed the requirements to be a woman or to be a candidate, why not?”

If that’s the case,
how would you prove that you are more female than transgender?
“I am more female than transgender since I possess true womanhood and femininity in myself. And I have this certain edge over men which is my wonderful capability to bear a life in my own body.”

What do you think

“I think the world needs love and prayers. With all the wars and calamities happening right now, I believe there is still hope. And if there is love in the community and sincere prayers from our hearts, the world would be a more colorful one.”

Young people today
are liberated and adventurous, willing to try everything. What's your stand on
pre-marital sex?
“I strongly believe that it is against our moral values as teenagers to engage in such intimate activity. Sex is a sacred union only for a certain married couple. However, as I have observed, teenagers of today have been lured by lust and such act has become very prominent.”
