I was a member for a long time, really MENSA seems mostly about people fulfilling the TV Stereotypes for really no reason other than publically demonstrating that they can. They had a new member featured on the cover of the newsletter once, she had a few pretty conservative tattoos and piercings.
I'd say easily the majority of members who saw that picture more or less godwinned themselves with how violently they reacted to her. I doubt they've changed much since then.
I think MENSA is pretty much the defining example of why computational abilities of various kinds should not be directly equated with being "smart".
