I found this song today, and it’s already one of my favorites. I love the message about fighting weight based insecurities. Although I’m a guy, and have never suffered anything like anorexia, I was chubby in middle school, and HATED my body. Then I lost weight to be healthy going into my freshman year of high school. Throughout high school, I was pretty thin, but I was still heavier than a small handful of my friends. Despite the fact I was on the thinner side, my weight based insecurities came back with a vengeance during my junior year, recreating a struggle that I still deal with almost two years later. Despite countless efforts to feel good in my body, I still have a hard time loving the body that I have. It wasn’t until about a month ago that I started making progress when I decided to listen to “Perfect” by P!nk. It was the first time hearing the song in seven years. From that point on, the lyric “you’re so mean when you talk, about yourself you’re wrong. Change the voices in your head, make them like you instead” has always stuck with me. Whenever I feel insecure, I try to remember that lyric. Thankyou for making this song, not only to inspire young women to reject societal Views on weight, but also all the other youth (boys and girls alike) to not give into what fast fashion says about beauty, but rather on their health and happiness.

I usually never comment anything on YouTube. But this song really hit my feelings hard. Thank you very much Jax for putting attention to this topic in a very honest and truthfully way. As a big brother to two little sisters struggling with eating disorders for years, this really just struck me to tears. Thank you.

As a father of daughters I sincerely thank you for this song.
Keep up the good work.
You are helping to keep beautiful young ladies out of the ER from self inflicted starvation and off the operating tables wanting to mutilate themselves for an unrealistic standard.
Again.
I sincerely thank you.

This song with watching the photoshopping sends such a powerful and important message!
Although I think the most important part of seeing the real vs edited along with the last few lyrics at the end gets missed with the end card credits things covering the comparison photos
This is a masterpiece though!

I’m 47, Breast Cancer survivor with double mastectomy, and over weight and my gosh this song gets me every time. I turn it on blast and dance! Wish I would have had this song back in my modeling days where I worked out continuously and never ate to match their standards. Phenomenal job JAX!! Girl you are hitting the nail on the head with so many of your songs!!! ❤🫶🏻

This song changed my entire perspective on my body. I haven't worn a bathing suit and gone swimming in over 2 years because I gained weight and felt I didn't deserve to wear one. Today was the most beautiful day and I bought a new bathing suit and spent the afternoon swimming. It was amazing. Thank you x a million.
