Actually, the trend started a good bit before the 70's with my parents' generation (closer to your great-grandparents' generation).
In some respects, your generation is as much a victim of the previous three generations' trend to automatics as it is to anything within itself. On average with each successive generation, there's been less exposure to MT driving. Makes MT driving kind of an "out of sight, out of mind" thing for lots of people, must be difficult because hardly anybody they know drives stick, etc.
