Spoiler alert:

After viewing, the question still remained: why do men need this?
At least they could keep copies in their club, without disposing of the original. There is only one idea: giving "beauty " to the local female population (so that the beauties please the eye on the streets, shops, etc.), but what kind of a pervert you have to be to kill wives for this.

@Sorceress772: that's how the movie explained why more clearly: "I work 80 hours a week, and you can't even clean the house."
Why keep the original, which will continue to breed shit in the house, drip on the brain, fuck around, if you can have an exemplary Stepford wife at home, who washes, cleans, cooks, never complains, always beautiful and happy, with a smile on her face meets her husband with jobs? What's the point of leaving such a thing in the club and living on with the original? There beauty is not in the foreground at all — you can look at beauty in the picture. They didn't fix anything in terms of appearance, only bigger breasts. There in the foreground was obedience and diligence

@Nonelemental: but we understand that srach (especially with such salaries) is perfectly cleaned by the household staff (as was the case with one of the wives), and a woman who is not satisfied by nature is perfectly treated with a divorce, not a lobotomy.
It's like justifying a murderer who caught and stabbed his wife and lover. A normal person will suffer, get divorced and continue to live on, a psychopath will take an axe.

@Sorceress772: and no one said that this is a movie about normal people. That's why this is a horror movie, that the characters here commit immoral, but convenient actions, and not vice versa.
Divorce is a division of property and children. Why does he need it if he can just swap his wife for an improved version, and the order organizes everything? Moreover, Joanna's husband did not set the rules: no one said that it was allowed to divorce his wife and have a double at home, and let the two versions walk around the world. Perhaps such an option was not allowed — only replacement with the elimination of the original.
