GLAM (Gay, Lesbian and Mensan) is a group for UK members of Mensa, the high-IQ society.
It was originally the UK Mensa Gaysig. However following a ruling by British Mensa that all official Sigs (Special Interest Groups) had to have their membership lists controlled by British Mensa headquarters, the group was forced to become independent to safeguard the privacy of its members.
GLAM organises a Sunday lunch once a month in a member's home, and an evening meal once a month in a London restaurant. There are occasional weekends away and other events.
During the 1990s the group published three issues of Sticky Fingers, a journal of erotic fiction written by members.
Ross Burgess maintains the GLAM website.
