From Graham Norton's autobiography:
"...I had now sex with a man, but I didn't feel any different. I know now that that is the great lesson to be learnt - you don't. What should be about who you are sleeping with isn't necessarily so. Most of what defines being gay, wether we like it or not, is lifestyle - it is the bars we go to, the clothes we

I don't know.. for me, sexuality is a very very very complicated subject. I've been with a girl, it was great, I'm more attracted to men, but less comfortable with them. I obviosly, live in side my head, in a gay culture.
I never understood those girls who had boyfriends in school, and of which all lives were about boys. I do think I want relationship with men, but probably bi ones. And I am probably one of those people who only going to have a relationship with one or two people in my life.

Obviosly, its not something you choose, but also, not black and white. Graham Norton was saying that he isn't gay because he doesn't like sex with women. For him there wasn't much of a difference. He was gay because of many factors, not only the act of sex.

Graham, had a short sexual experience with a boy when he was 16. It overwhelmed him alot. After that he had a short relationship with his french teacher at university, a woman who told him he is gay.
Alot of people told him he was gay before he could say that to himself. He didn't choose to be gay he was born that way, and he wasnt denying that. What he was saying, is that he thought that he'd sleep with a man, then it all would be clear. But it wasn't that way, because it wasn't the sexual act itself that defined for him his sexuality, it was more about emotions, communication, and yes, also physicality, but NOT ONLY about sex.
