I tell you what: Since you wrote, "In my experience..." how about telling us
what experience you HAVE with Mensa? Your negative attitude seems to
indicate a negative experience (probably a failure to qualify for
membership). I've been a life member of Mensa since 1984, and I've met
hundreds of Mensans during that time. Most of them were at least as
accomplished as their Densan counterparts, and most of them were also
socially skilled.

I think you're just perpetuating a stereotype because you envy those with
higher IQ's.
