Some men like women with wit, some dont. I always feel a woman is lying to me if she pretends to be dumb or acts like she likes everything I do, its like, what does she want from me? Women really are no different from guys, sometimes much worse in wanting and getting things so its best if the woman seems witty and is upfront, otherwise I would never trust her.

I graduated in the top 3 of my high school class, and my high school sweetie graduated at the bottom. We had been together all through high school, and we always joked pretty equally with each other and friends. After one year at our respective colleges, we spilt up. He found a girl that he was smarter than. And he actually sited that as one of the reasons he was leaving me. (there was no mention on whether or not she was funny or witty).
My boyfriend now, I would say, he and I are equals in the intelligence category, but he, by FAR, is a much funner person than I. But by no means does he like it if I stay quiet when we're out with friends or sitting at home by ourselves. I regualrly join in when joking and being witty.
If men don't like women who are witty and funny, I haven't really met one. Personally, I enjoy when I hear guys saying, "hey, you're really funny!" or "Hey man, you picked a girl with a sense of humour!". But of course, each indivuidual is different and different realtionships have different dynamics.
And as far as being upfront. I believe that is VERY important. My beau and I met under ridiculous circumstances and its amazing we're still together. We had a "one night stand" kinda thing, and he ended up calling me a week later to see if we could meet for lunch. When we did, I ended up easing the conversation into what I actually expected of us. I never expected him to call back, and I never expected anything beyond that lunch. But when he saw how straight forward I was...well...we're still together.
He is by far the funniest person I know. And for what its worth, I find that incredibly attractive.
