One of the first millenials to emerge here, graduating class early 00's. First 8/10 of white millenial male peers I can think of right off the bat can drive stick. One even bought a cheap stick shift car back when we were younger just to learn it. We all took turns abusing that cheap dirty whore of a car, good times. We all learned it because either a) we were poor as shit; first car had stick, b) learning how to operate a clutch and shift was a requirement to ride the 4-wheelers and dirt bikes, c) nobody wants to be the guy who can't perform, so you jump in the aforementioned whore car and figure it out while your buddies point and laugh at you and your initial failures. Only met 1 black who can drive stick, growing up in area heavily populated with niggers. Only met 2 women who can drive stick. One of 'em raised me, the other was a church girl I was getting rejected by at one point in time.
