I agree with this. I know someone who did a stint at Nova because he wanted a Japanese girlfriend, and although he thought the women he met were "hot", he said he'd been disappointed that they didn't look like he'd expected them to - his previous exposure to Japanese women having been porn stars/gravure models
I would also agree that part of it is presentation. Any woman is going to look better with makeup and smart clothes than she is in dirty jeans and hair that hasn't been brushed, etc.
