Not really, I think it's just that they pay more attention to little things like these by nature.
Here's how I open the bags if I can't get them to open by using my fingers. Stretch bag opening using both hands so that it looks horizontal in a straight line (lets call this the lips). Then give a good gentle blow towards the lips and like magic it will open up for you! This works 80% of the time from my experience.

No, we don't get taught to open carrier bags in school but one thing we do get taught about is spelling!!
we learn to open carrier bags when we go shopping with our parents. Its not exactly rocket science and definitely not engineering!!

you simply rub one side of the bag against the other one for a second and, voila, it'll open. i worked in a supermarket as a student and that was the only useful thing i learned there.

Unless you want to wear a skirt . Soon as the bag sees a skirt goes ...bang! Open! Just like a zip! ;)

fantastic question but spoilt a bit by additional details that were unnecessary.
Answer. we are genetically programmed to open plastic bags because in a pre societal state of nature, man was stronger than us and we suffocated him while he slept using "bags" woven from the wings of dragonflies which were notoriously difficult to prise apart.

Slighty moisten your fingers (don't gob all over them).
Then hold the top of a carrier bag between them and rub your fingers.
Ta-Da, as if by magic it opens....
