[If bodily] defects were upon her while she was still in her father’s house, the father must bring proof that these defects came about after she was betrothed, and that his misfortune had caused it. [If] she entered the husband’s authority, the husband must bring proof that she had these defects before she was betrothed, and [that] his acquisition was made in error; [these are] the words of R’ Meir. The Sages, however, say: When does this apply? In [the case of] hidden defects; but in [the case of] exposed defects, he cannot make a claim. But if there is a bathhouse in that city —- even in [the case of] hidden defects he cannot make a claim, because he examines her through his female relatives.
