Due to the hotness distortion coefficient, a picture could be an inaccurate gauge of how hot a woman is if you have never met the woman in question irl. The decimal approximation for the value of the HDC is ±1.273
EQUATION TO DETERMINE HOTNESS:
Hotness distortion coefficient(face+tits+ass+overall body shape-fat)/5
