A lot of people join Mensa not to brag about it. Mensa can be a really good group to join to meet interesting people and make new friends. Lots of members don't discuss their membership outside of Mensa meetups.
- throwaway808st 9y agoIn my experience, the people interested in Mensa are people who need validation and aren't necessarily the sort to brag. Usually people whose identity is tied up in being intelligent. These are the sort of people who have trouble succeeding, because they're unable to take a risk (lest it somehow indicate they weren't smart). You know the sort, love online debates about bikesheds, but can't seem to make anything happen in the real world.
