Woman Hater

A determined bachelor who staunchly believes women are a nuisance finds his convictions challenged when he becomes entangled with a beautiful woman. He attempts to prove his theory by proving women are incapable of doing 'manly' jobs, only to find himself falling for the very person he's trying to discredit. The ensuing situations highlight the clash between his misogynistic views and his growing attraction.
