| abstract | - The Stooges, employed as traveling salesmen, join the Woman Haters Club. After an induction ceremony involving eyepokes, they officially become members of the club. They swear never to get romantically involved with any woman. This pledge is short-lived. Jim (Larry) finds a woman, Mary (Marjorie White), falls in love, and has proposed marriage. Misogynists Tom (Moe) and Jackie (Curly) talk him out of it. At the house, Jim was nervous about telling Mary to call off their wedding because she was so happy. Her father tells him the story of what he and his brothers had done to the man that was to marry his other, unattractive daughter. He attempted to call off the wedding, break his older daughter's heart and run away, but they put him in his place. Fearing bodily harm from Mary's father and his brothers, Jim is convinced to marry the attractive woman, while the man shakes his head in disgust. Later, on a train ride, a confrontation escalates between the Stooges and Mary. Mary uses her feminine charm to woo both Jackie and Tom in an attempt to make Jim jealous. She sings a theme ("for you, for you, my life, my love my all") with each of the stooges in turn, as she flirts with them. Each is attracted to her charms as she proves the oath they swore as Women Haters was fraudulent, though Jackie tries to resist her and stay true to his vow. Finally, Mary tells Tom and Jackie the truth, that she and Jim are married, and pushes her way into bed with the trio, knocking Tom and Jackie out of the train window in the process. The film closes as the Stooges, now old men, finally reunite (at the now empty Woman Haters headquarters) reaffirming their hatred of women.
