Learning to drive stick is really easy. I can't see why anyone would lose the performance and take on the ridicule of driving automatic over something you should be able to pick up in an afternoon.

It's not so much that it's bad to not want to drive a stick, it's wanting to own a sports car but not wanting to learn how to drive it.

Why would anyone actually be opposed to learning manual? It's a few hours time to learn the basics, at most, and a lifetime's worth of a basic skill. Even if you plan on driving auto Civics the rest of your life, I can't imagine having the chance to learn manual and not doing so.

Depends on the car you get. I love a stick, but my new BMW is paddle shift becasuse its performance is much better.
