Was Democritus gay

I don’t think it is likely he was exclusively gay because he wrote about the trials of raising children as if he had experienced doing so in the following way, "it is better not to have any children, for to bring them up well takes great trouble and care, and seeing them grow up badly is the cruellest of all pains." There is a chance that he was writing from hearsay, but I think this suggests that he raised children and it did not go well. But then, perhaps he was not so good at raising children because he did not get on with the children's mum, because he was gay.
