I think you may have misunderstood the reason behind the closure of the post. The last thing that needs to start is gossip about things based in no facts. Although your ideas to provoke discussion, it can also provoke gossip and misinformation. Please do not take it personally when a post is closed. I recognize your attention to controversial subjects through your frequent posting. However, you must understand that everyone is not going to agree or allow the things you wish to be discussed to be discused. As an SF for any organization, we all must recognize when we are out of line. These women are members of a respected organization. it is understandable that they may not want certain things to be discussed or gossip to start on the subject. Please take that into account when you make topics.
Also, addressing and directing comments towards the moderator who closed your topic is an easy way to start "chit".
