I think her "feminist" ideals are very solid and despite having an influence on her writing, she hasn't necessarily been writing them as a political statement, it's still very much art. I could totally relate to it when I was younger. Sadly, I often get this impression from SY fans, nobody has been listening to these messages. In general, people like the fact that she is herself. As for being the weakest musician, probably from a technical point of view, but I don't believe that is the most important aspect of it all. Her contribution has been essential.
