Released May 05, 1934
Featuring Moe, Larry and Curly
Columbia
19.33 min. (Short Subject)

The boys join the Woman Haters Club, pledging their money and vowing that they'll never take a wife. Jim (Larry) soon reneges when he secretly marries his sweetheart named Mary. Jim takes his bride with him on a sales trip/honeymoon and tries to hide his marriage from his two partners, who happen to be on the train. Mary learns the secret, and suckers both Tom and Jack (Moe and Curly) into romancing her to teach her husband a lesson.

When the film was originally released, Marjorie White received top billing over the Three Stooges, who were credited as "Jerry Howard, Larry Fine, and Moe Howard." White was killed in an automobile accident the following year.

WOMAN HATERS was the 5th entry in the "Musical Novelties" short subject series, and all music in the short comes from the first four films. "My Life, My Love, My All" has new lyrics written for WOMAN HATERS by Archie Gottler, but the music was originally titled "At Last" in a 1933 release called UMPA, music and lyrics by Gottler, Sydney Mitchell and Con Conrad. Edward Eliscu also contributed to other tunes heard in WOMAN HATERS.

See The Three Stooges Journal # 86 (Summer 1998) and # 87 (Fall 1998) for detailed background of all the music titles, origins, and composers.
