This is the second time you've used that phrase in my journal. I'm not sure it means what you think it means, considering each time you use it you follow it with yet another statement that you hope will corroborate your argument.
I'm a full time visual arts student. I look at everything from the artist's perspective. Yes, there are some pictures in which the model's face is placed above Adam's instead of underneath, and where she exhibits less passive body language. And I will reiterate, she is still naked in these pictures. He is still completely clothed and pawing her possessively. In fact, he's wearing even more clothing than the picture in which she is placed beneath him.
Furthermore, the centerpiece of the photo shoot, the only shot that takes up two pages, is the one that shows her with the most submissive posture.
No matter how you look at it, the power dynamic is still nowhere close to being weighted in her favor.
