When is the best time to tell co-workers that you are gay?

I don't think its important to tell a co-worker, but if it is, it should be when they're really listening.

No one ever has to tell their co workers that theyre straight, so why tell them that youre gay? I dont think that it has to be some huge announcement or unveiling but if something comes up like talking about the opposite sex maybe you can casually slide in that youre not into that, even make a small joke about it if you want. Sexuality shouldnt be some serious, anxiety-ridden secret, even though thats how Ive always seen it. Now what Ive started to do is just let it come out naturally, the same way straight people naturally bring up their crushes or partners etc. when it comes out casually and with ease, its so much less stressful!

Whenever you feel comfortable in telling them! It is your right to express yourself, so whenever you think the relief of showing it openly would surpass than the possible uneasiness of opening up, that's the right time. If you feel uncomfortable, you can wait a bit until you get to know them better and you're closer to one another. You can even choose to tell it first to one or more colleagues that you trust the most, and then tell the others, so you'll be sure to have someone supportive by your side.

Whenever you feel comfortable telling them this and whenever the time seems appropriate to do so. Just tell them in your own time, there is never a best time.

When you are sure that they would be accepting. Find out by bringing up a gay celebrity or marriage legalization and see how they react. Then a gathering outside of work might be better than during work, but it all depends on if you feel good about the situation.

It's hard to say when the best time is to come out to your co-workers. I think in many situations, if not most, it is unnecessary to tell your co-workers that you're gay. It has nothing to do with work and shouldn't matter at all!

Whenever you feel most comfortable. Telling people you are gay is hard but it all depends on how comfortable you are with them. It's entirely up to you.

On a one-on-one time. Before any event that might make things uncomfortable for either or both parties.

When youre ready and comfortable, and are sure there are no risks, and only you can tell when that is

Why would you. You just work with them. They don't need to know about your personal life. It's not their business
