    What with “wife” being a somewhat subjective term these days, I wonder if any same-gender teams compete in the wife carrying competitions.

    Depends on how you define ‘civilization’. Always remembering that the existence of ‘Adam Sandler movies’ may be taken as proof that ‘civilization’ has not yet started.
