Hearts are Thumps (1937)
The He-man Women-haters club was created by George Robert Phillips "Spanky" McFarland (1928/10/02- 1993/06/30) and immediately joined by Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer (1927/08/07 - 1959/01/29) and William 'Buckwheat' Thomas (1931/03/12 - 1980/10/10).

Spanky:
| Lets start a club right now. The He-man Woman-haters. I'll be president.
| |
Alfalfa | And I'll be second president, and you can be third president.
| |
Buckwheat | Thanks.
| |
Spanky | Alright, get up and do exactly what I do. Put your hand on your heart, and raise your other hand. We, the He-man Woman-haters club...
| |
Alfalfa and Buckwheat | We, the he-man woman-haters club...
| |
Spanky | ...promise not to fall for this Valentines business...
| |
Alfalfa and Buckwheat | ...promise not to fall for this Valentines business...
| |
Spanky | ...because girls are the bunk.
| |
Alfalfa and Buckwheat | ...because girls are the bunk.

Alfalfa is almost immediately lured away by Darla Hood, leaving Spanky and Buckwheat as the sole members of this short-lived club. [00:01:27 - 00:02:27]
