I learned how to drive on a stick. Every new car I've bought has been with a manual transmission.  Automatic is convenient especially with daily commutes in traffic, but as far as actual driving - they're boring.  Plus manual transmissions are generally cheaper and serve as a defacto anti-theft device. How many car thieves can drive a stick these days?
