No, in fact there's a very good reason to learn Tkinter.
It is based on Tk which is also the default GUI tool for Perl 
and Tcl, two other popular scripting languages... If you 
know Tkinter learning their GUI toolkits will be very easy.

OTOH wxPyuthon is useful too because it is much more similar 
in style to things like Microsoft MFC(and the .NET class framework)
so that if you ever have to use them wxPython knowlege will 
help more than Tkinter.

They typify two types of approach to GUI toolkit design, 
both equally valid. Ideally learn both, then use the one you 
find most natural - for me thats Tkinter, but my GUI needs 
are very basic... If I had to build a sophisticated GUI I'd 
probably use something else(like Delphi!).
