Yeah. What the fuck are you talking about? That's a ridiculous contention. What, if anything, is this based on?
Most people I know like witty women as much as they do witty men. I don't know anyone who thinks women shouldn't be witty. I mean, they've already got the vote, and they're wearing pants. I you don't think women have the right to wit, it's Armageddon out there.
And actually, most guys I know tend to think it's sexy.
Especially if the woman is some how "batter at it" (wittier, I guess you mean). A lot of people are really turned on by that (assuming it's not done playfully and not in an abrasive or spiteful way).
