I believe that this (in bold) may be contributing to the perceived "defensiveness". Please do not speak for me. I'm happy and involved in my respective organization and active in making change for the better. Do the same or move on.

Come on.... in the context of the sentence you quoted, she's just saying she knows more about the organization now than she did before initiation.

Perhaps ,but I have a feeling that her views of not aligning with her selected org are probably not with the majority of GC and although I'm from a different counsel, I find it innapropriate to sterotype anyone as not enjoying/contributing/appreciating their membership.

Being an "XYZ" does not make you better, but it should prompt you to be your best. If someone meets you and you tell them what org you are in, they should be impressed based on the way in which you speak and your overall appearance.
You say this yet it's safe to say that you pursued them.
