Curiosity, the desire to gather with companions, and the spirit of hospitality are some of the rarely shared traits among members of American Mensa, an otherwise different-minded community of folks from myriad backgrounds and in all stages of life.

They all scored high on a standardized IQ test, and sometimes that’s the only trait any given two Mensans share.

Something special can happen, however, when any size group of M’s assemble: The comfort of being understood and valued is the best pairing for any gathering of Mensans.

When we share those feelings, it’s worthy of a toast.

Looking for long-life bond?

“Mensa” means “table” in Latin, and the organization was so named as Mensa is a round-table society where ethnicity, colour, creed, national origin, age, politics, educational and social background are all completely irrelevant.

Many people have found their life partners through Mensa, and many more have found lifelong friends. Every Mensan has their own personal reason for joining up. There are Mensans for whom Mensa provides a sense of family, and others for whom it’s a casual social activity. But, for a lot of Mensans, it’s just a wonderful opportunity to stimulate the mind.
