How to I explain to my Lesbian friend that using the term "Gay" in a context that has nothing to do with homosexuals and such, is fine ?

Doesn't work. They go crazy every time I say it.
And even though I say sorry because I do actually not want them to be hurt, they say I don't mean the apology when I do :/

You don't because it's not. Using "gay" negatively, even out of context, is still expressing negativity towards gay people, whether you mean it or not.
You can't just run around calling people niggers and then going "oh but I don't mean it in like the 'offensive term for black people' way. I'm using it out of context so it's fine!"

Judging by the marsupial lion, I'm guessing you are either very australian or autistic, which would explain your social inadequacies.

Example of such contexts?

Either ask her which term you should use instead or tell her you don't mean to arm her when you use it. If she keeps on getting mad at you for such petty things then maybe you should consider letting her be

i dont agree.. i get what you meen but you can call people black sxp. your lick a black jamse franko the way you act lol...but thats more decrpitive i guess
so if i said hes like a gay george patton its not the same as saing that agument is kinda gay.

i guess i can see it both ways sorry iv never had that problem with my friends . now that i see it thats the point you were making between literal and figurtive . but what about that party was freaking gay (like awsome) cause you know gays can party. so i am wandering why is the term gay have to be used in a negative way, thats like saying black is negative. wouldnt that make you a biggit for assuming they were using it in a negative way. food for thought
