Motivation Quote by Boris Becker

Becker is trying to turn a clumsy, racially charged observation into a punchline about his own undesirability - and the “joke” is built on the whiplash of who he claims is approaching him. The line leans on the nightclub as a social sorting machine: attraction as crowd control, race as instant shorthand, and celebrity as a force that rearranges bodies in a room. His intent reads less like a confession of prejudice and more like an attempt at self-deprecating humor: I’m not choosing; I’m being chosen, and the pattern is so stark it feels absurd.

That’s why the final twist lands the way it does. “It’s as if I’m racist towards white girls!” flips racism into something accidental, even comic - a misunderstanding produced by market dynamics of desire. It’s a rhetorical move that tries to inoculate him: if he can frame the situation as a parody of racism, he’s not the villain, just the baffled observer. But the subtext gives the game away. He treats women as a color-coded audience, “my corner” as territory, and preference as a racial algorithm. The humor depends on the audience accepting that “blonde” equals white, “black girls” are a single bloc, and that both groups respond predictably to his presence.

Context matters: Becker’s celebrity was tabloid oxygen in the 90s, including public fixation on his relationships. This quote plays into that media ecosystem - fame turning private attraction into public narrative - while also revealing how easily “ironic” race talk becomes a way to say something crude with plausible deniability.
