    I've no doubt she means well - but she's not that greeting kid that caught the media attention a few years back and needs to positively influence things.
    To us grumpy old farts, the silly chanting does look exactly that. To a lot of other people, it makes her seem more accessible, like they could achieve the same as her (and let's be honest, she has achieved a lot in raising awareness).

    Sometimes you have to pull a cheesy stunt (not a euphemism for Whorty's parts) to engage people.

    She's always been divisive and always will be. Her message is uncompromising and uncomfortable to a lot of people but to others it's a refreshing point of view.

    I'm not a huge fan but I can see she fills a niche - if she didn't, she wouldn't be a household name.
