The video was disliked bombed and had 100K dislikes. 
She criticized what she described as conservative women keeping their views "under wraps", saying that conservative women had it harder than conservative men, especially with regard to expressing their anti-abortion views or being taken seriously. She claimed that there was a need for women to come out as conservative in order to form a community, and because she claimed that everything about her, including her makeup and clothing, came from a "conservative and classic lifestyle".

As of 2021, she has started to make gaming-related streams and focuses on reading books and singing. 
==Controversy==
===Comments about the #MeToo movement===
On May 6, 2020, Classically Abby released a videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=st5KJb7b8Xc critical of the #MeToo movement "Why We Should NOT Just #BelieveAllWomen​ || This movement has major problems...". The video was disliked bombed, currently sitting at 56K dislikes. She was criticized for victim blaming victims of the MeToo movement, as well as her hypocrisy of saying feminists shame women for their choices, while saying herself that not having kids is unnatural, shaming women who had abortionshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot4bUl7-puw, women shouldn't wear revealing clothes, men should be masculine and not wear dresseshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fW1hjiFthR4&t=170s, and people should only marry people of their own faithhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhRDZM6Vj8w. Severalhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNFmNMBwFvk YouTubershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAzEVKj8GYg responded to her,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtA964-PEVQ&t=1125s though Abby has said that hate comments don't bother her.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSXDo4OaAYA
===Dressing modestly===
Her videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UklBGXO6sb0 saying women should dress modestly was her most disliked video of all time, sitting at 152K dislikes. In the video, she said that women should not dress "garishly" or "distracting" and should dress "in a way that was respectful to everyone". She also implied that all men were sexist perverts who only cared about women's bodies and it was women's responsibility to stop them from thinking dirty thoughts. She also said “At fifty years old do you want to be praised for your body or your family?”, which was considered offensive to women who were career based. She made a responsehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7v0k0R2e-gw to the criticisms, which was similarly negatively received. 
=== Lack of research ===
In her video Is Marriage REALLY Patriarchal? I Did Some Digging...And The Feminist Story Doesn't Add Up., Abby claimed that King Henry the Eighth was a loving husband, when in reality he killed his wives and maltreated most of themhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS8WAjuM5uc.
===Monetizing her miscarriage===
In May 2021, Abby had a miscarriage and made a video about it and it received positive feedback. However, Milo Yiannopoulos called her an 'ugly liar', and posted a screenshot on Telegram of a Domino's ad running on her video.

*"Motherhood has been so denigrated that women feel scared to say that they want children more than a high-powered career for fear that they'll be seen as backwards and old-fashioned.
