I am not a member of Mensa. I've never had my IQ officially tested, and I don't plan on ever doing so.

@ DarkTriad - IIRC, that's how Vox got in. He used to have it posted as a byline on his blog and WorldNetDaily column. When asked about it, he said he only put it out there because it pissed off all the right people.

It is me Zelcorpion - living the life in Eastern Europe.
Whether Roosh is officially a Mensa-member or not does not matter really. I have tested a couple of times and frankly the results varied with age, health and current mental activity.
And besides - who the fuck cares? I met genius level data-entry clerks (who worked on theorems of mathematics in their free time!) and I met guys with tested IQs of 120 who became CEOs by age 38.
IQ helps. Roosh seems high-IQ. How high? Who the fuck cares. What matters is how we use our gifts in life. There should be more guys like Roosh running around. Not because they bed a lot of girls, but because they live according to their own rules, work on themselves and their goals and live fucking intense and memorable lives!

Makow unfortunately does not like Game - regardless of whether it is used in a strong relationship or outside.
He recommends college guys to remain celibate and concentrate on their studies while they watch the all-around-fuckfest of the campus sluts chasing Alphas. They should remain nice guys and become worthwhile men through professional success and look for the few uncorrupted girls out there.
Frankly those dating tips will result in blue balls and extreme frustration until marriage of a post-SMV woman in his 30s. Consequently the gameless nice guy will be divorce-raped if his precious snowflake has some real or perceived sexual market value left at all (which currently means most of women before the great-inner-wall of 45 really hits them and not even internet fuck-ladder-dating can inflate their egos sufficiently any more).
Makow prefers men to be game-less, look for the precious snowflake, be a traditional religiuous man and good provider. His analysis of feminism - history and real reasons - is correct, but what to do about it is sorely lacking. But hey - you don't have to agree with everything with somebody in order to respect him. That shit is feminized PC-think.

I stand by it! Game should be taught to all men - best at age 14. Even if they are to become catholic priests or monks - it helps every man understand the female psychology. - Zelcorpion

There's differing thoughts on how IQ deteriorates with age. Some blame the visual and perception difficulties older people are dealing with during the testing process. Others claim the brain needs to be continually-exercised, and that deterioration happens when you stop a regularly-learning new information. The peak years are thought to be 21-40.
For guy's working the self-improvement / knowledge game, I'm sure you recognise being a 30-year-old man regularly reading about history, health and science and the communication gulf between you and the average 30 year old woman, who usually hasn't read anything but celebrity gossip, trashy novels and pop-culture 'self-help / spirituality' books since high school. Take a look at what is on the nightstand of the next chick you fuck. No wonder they never accumulate wisdom.

IQ certainly deteriorates with age, though training, nutrients in food, toxins (Amalgam, sweeteners, MSG etc.) definitely play a role.
Women in Eastern Europe are more well-read, but most women don't reach the level and breadth of interests as men do.
In the past I often tried to have intellectual conversations with the ladies. Some tried to show interest if they were into me, but more often it was rather contra-productive or dull at best. Playful banter and amused mastery with some sprinkles of asshole makes for way more memorable experiences.
