My GF is German, and a member of Mensa, and was involved in Germany.
When she moved to the UK and signed up with the local branch here, however, she was horrified by what she saw: self-important pretentious people lazily philosophizing about things they knew nothing about, with little intellectual rigour. The magazine still comes every month, but she wants no more part of it.
I was a bit involved with the university branch of Mensa in Germany, i.e. Mind Hochschulnetzwerk. But my contact with them is mostly through alumni from the Deutsche SchuelerAkademie.
