That's not entirely true, loss of traction in a FWD comes later than in a RWD (in most cases) and, certainly in a stick, putting the clutch in and using the brakes to put more weight on the driving wheels will help you quote a bit in regaining traction. This is under the assumption you have room.
At least, in a FWD you can see what you're going to hit, and attempt to steer around it. In an RWD, once you put the car in a spin, you put the car in a spin - unless you are very, very, skilled, at least.
Merry Christmas to you all!!
