* CigarChomper: The three main actresses are shown on the movie cover each brandishing a cigar while being propped up on a pedestal, purposely turning the AlwaysMale stereotype of cigar smoking on its head as they are three women taking back control and getting revenge on their scummy ex-husbands. Diane Keaton is the only one actually chomping her cigar, however, with Midler and Hawn just holding theirs.

* TrophyWife: The movie is about women who get dumped, often to be replaced by trophy wives/girlfriends. Phoebe, the ditzy starlet, and Shelly, the catty gold-digger, are the two most prominent examples, helping inspire the women they've replaced to create the club.

Leslie could be seen as one as well, as she's a successful professional compared to the mousy homemaker Annie.
