I am a 40 year old man, who has only just learnt how to tie my shoelaces properly. I have spent my entire life using the two bunny ear approach. My 8 year old daughter recently explained how to tie laces like an adult.
@fesshole I was in my fourties when I learned that there are two mirrored ways of making the knots, one way gives a secure tie and the other keeps slipping loose.
Thanks to the internet I taught myself to change a 40 year habit overnight.
