It's an inert rock but Kal-El uses it as an excuse to drop the act for a little while.

Lois: "You know, Superman's been acting awfully strange since being exposed to pink kryptonite. What do you think's wrong with him?"

Supergirl: "Lois, you so don't want to know."

Superman: "Did I ever tell you how smashing you look in bowties, Jimmy? By the way, that's a fabulous window treatment you've put together."

The Superman fan wiki says

Pink Kryptonite is a type of Kryptonite that seemingly turns Kryptonians more feminine or queer. This type of Kryptonite only made one appearance in comics and was used as a satire of the plots of Silver Age comic stories featuring some strange new form of Kryptonite.

In an animated short, True Colors, from the animated series Justice League Action, its effect was changed to switch the gender of the Kryptonian under its effects, due to the more family-friendly nature of the show.

So, boo :(

The scene in Action is pretty great.

After he goes through a sailor moon change, he says 'I can work with this' and continues the fight.

I use he because the voice doesnt change and since its undone shortly after with no lingering remark I don't think it matters to Supes either way.

The pink one is just very intoxicating. He fucks women as well as men. It makes him horny and weak to suggestion.

So Superman is actually bi, and it's only the "fruity drinks kryptonite" that lowers his inhibitions enough to be himself?

But what is pictured here is artichoke kryptonite which leaves an aftertaste of lingering sweetness
