Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the widely praised notion of precariat. While demonstrating the weaknesses of its theoretical assessments offered by such authors, as: Kathi Weeks, Guy Standing, Jan Sowa or Antonio Negri, I try to reinstall diversity that lays at the core of this category. It is, as I argue, crucial for making emancipation possible, to make the “girl” function as something more than a simple neoliberal icon of conformist consumption.
