Which is a hell of a lot easier to do without the clutch peddle. The car does all the work for you. Its just gay man, admit it already.

Exactly. They might not want to admit it, but people seem to choose the AT because the can't or don't want to use a clutch pedal. I also don't buy the idea that a stick is a pain in traffic. I sit in Chicago traffic all the time and I actually prefer the stick because it gives me something to do. Most of the time I'm neutral in stop and go traffic anyway.

My brother in law is gay and has a M3 that's a MT, I could introduce you? He's a car guy (only as an accessory) , likes clutches and playing with sticks so you have some things in common?

Urban Dictionary: gay

1. jovial or happy, good-spirited

2. a homosexual male or female

3. often used to describe something stupid or unfortunate. originating from homophobia. quite preferable among many teenage males in order to buff up their "masculinity"

1. "We'll have a gay old time."

2. "You DO know he's gay. Notice his homoerotic pornography collection."

3. "Man, these automatic transmissions are gay. I can't even control what's going on with my car!"

Wow, that was wrong! That's the second time this month I wished I didn't look something up! The first was little Wayne's fault, don't look up truffle butter! I warned you!

Make sure they are not British. They will fight you if you call them one.

And I don't think it really works in this situation. There are both AT and MT drivers on this forum that could be described by it
