This paper critically examines the concept of empowerment and considers the contradictory role of feminist teachers and authority in dominant institutions of knowledge production. Questions are raised about the emotional labour required to sustain feminist pedagogy for empowerment in the academy. Issues of student resistance, group dynamics, difference and diversity in women‐only groups are interrogated using the theoretical frameworks of critical and feminist pedagogy and postmodernism. The paper draws illustratively on interviews with feminist academics who were asked how they applied feminism to their pedagogy/ teaching methodologies, and students who identified as feminists were asked for their views on styles of classroom interaction
