A man in Northern China has sued his ex-wife for producing what he has called "an incredibly ugly" baby. The case, highly unprecedented, netted Jian Feng $120,000 dollars in "damages."

Feng divorced his wife last year after realizing that she had had over $100,000 in plastic surgery in order to "trick him into marrying her," the ibtimes.com reported. When the couple found out they were pregnant, Feng had hopes that the baby would be as good look as its mother, but that was not to be.

"I married my wife out of love, but as soon as we had our first daughter, we began having marital issues," he told The Irish Times. "Our daughter was incredibly ugly, to the point where it horrified me."

Feng filed for divorce, citing "false pretenses," given the amount of plastic surgery his wife had had. He felt deceived by her appearance and the promise of an attractive child. A judge ruled in favor of Feng's argument and ordered the woman to pay him $120,000 in damages.

While there is some questioning as to whether the story is true or simply urban legend, it is clear that the majority of the public feels empathy for the woman and her daughter. Many have lashed out at Feng for his cowardice and irresponsible lawsuit.

"Whilst the woman is out of line for not sharing this important part of her past with him prior to their marriage, I feel terribly sorry for their baby, and this man is a monster," noted Huffington Post reader francescatynan. "What kind of father declares their child to be ugly and uses that as the reason for divorcing their wife? Not a kind one certainly. It is incredibly irresponsible to emotionally scar the child for life."

Here are two pictures comparing the woman's face pre-surgery and post-surgery:

Honestly, this thread isn't what I expected. Never thought about the plastic surgery angle.

On one hand, I can understand his motives. She deliberately tricked him and produced a child different than what her appearance would suggest. Also, I'm not sure about China's child policy these days, but that could be a big factor as well.

On the other hand, I feel sad for the baby for potentially finding out about this mess.

Brb moving to China.

Meg Ryan should have hired the man who fixed this woman's face to do her face work.

He really shouldn't have been awarded $120,000, and it's a pretty stupid lawsuit to bring up anyway, but you can see why he would be upset if his wife hid that from him. Arguably grounds for divorce, but that should have been thrown out of court immediately.

But considering China's strict laws on children, this woman caused one of his few legal children to be ugly, against his knowledge. 

I find the baby to be the least ugly person involved in this story.

Only in China...

I can't believe this is even possible.
