The pilcrow gets my vote. It seems like the Tim Gunn kind of smartly dressed, snippy gay man of the punctuation world.
I learned that there is a punctuation mark called a solidus, so that's kinda cool and VGR.

But before giving the tilde the crown (or tiara?)
I laughed.
The italicised version of the tilde is the most gay I believe.

I don't even think you can see the difference between italic and normal...

I was going to go tilde but you convinced me with that example that curved brackets are indeed the gayest {mwwooaarrr!!}.
Tilde all the way, you can even use it for saying gay stuff!
Like: "Oh my god, I would soooooo pinch Aerox ass~"

According to Wikipedia, the tilde is a diacritical mark (~) placed over a letter to indicate a change in pronunciation, such as nasalization.
It was first used in the polytonic orthography of Ancient Greek, as a variant of the circumflex accent, representing a rise in pitch followed by a return to standard pitch.

I forgot a couple.
« » Guillemets. Just because of the name.
But the overall winner:
* The Asterisk.
C'mon where does this little black star remind you of?

i'd say tilde for this discussion. But consider also that the Asterism looks particularly Bear:

I say curved brackets, if only because of the fact that the tildebang exists, and that is the most masculine of all punctuation.
For reals~!

hmm...this reminds me of a story...one day my gf missed her . which almost made me empty my : so I made a mad - to the supermarket where there was a / in prices for pregnancy tests...later to my relief there was no + in sight so my gf and I decided to !
(uh if you don't get the last part an exclamation mark is also sometimes called a "bang" which is also the reason it is now my fave punctuation ever)

@Neonie
but was it always a girl? ;)
If you ask me, the tilde used to be a - dash but got a sex change and became curvy ~
I dont think that makes it gay, just confused.
If thats the case then the curly brackets are the winners here.

!Aerox is straight++
I always thought * was pretty gay though (dammit Takeshi beat me to it). It's a shame that the icon on some keyboard's tab key is not a punctuation mark |<-

Italics is a good way to gay up a punctuation mark a bit (compare ! and !), but I'm going with ≈. It's like the San Francisco of the character map.
I'm thinking the asterisk *
It knows it's gay and has no problem flaunting it in an explosive way. It's out and proud, dammit!

Nothing is gayer than the asterisk. He jumps for joy over the testicular shape of the number 8. Just look how happy he is.
No, seriously, look at him. He's thrilled. And he's trying to coax the metrosexual ampersand over his way. Asterisk is hella gay.
HAHAHAH!!! I now agree with Topher, and will never see the eight key the same way again. Giddily jumping asterisk ftw.
