“When it comes to the subject of feminism, I’ve remained ever-so-slightly quiet. I don’t like joining conversations that feel like they’re ‘trending,’” confessed the actress in a funny, pointed new essay for Lena Dunham’s “Lenny Letter.” But, she acknowledges, “with a lot of talk comes change, so I want to be honest and open and, fingers crossed, not piss anyone off.”

But when she found out about the disparity, Lawrence wasn’t mad at Sony — she was mad at herself.
