Would it be inappropriate and inconsiderate for someone to come out during Thanksgiving, especially with extended relatives around?

It depends how it's done. Are they going to stand up and announce it after the family says grace?? I really don't think you have to come out to that many people. It's important to tell your parents - and the relatives who have a need to know. (For instance an Aunt who adores you and is forever trying to fix you up with people of the opposite sex). After you get past the important people in your life - everybody else will pretty much just catch on.
Coming out is different for everybody - but making a spectacle of yourself is not what you want to do. Do it with love - and the chance of folks loving you back will be greater.

Its probably not the best time to come out. Maybe talk to people individually and chose the right time and place. Don't make it into a big drama, I'm sure thats not what you want to do. I am glad you want to be honest with your family and friends though.
Good luck.

In general, holidays are always a bad time to bring up something that could upset people. Take care of business well ahead of time, so the holiday can be a pleasant, bonding time.

Depends on what reaction they are expecting. If the family will be truly happy then they should go for it. If they are going to create such a silence that one can hear the turkey cooking, then I would wait until Arbor Day.

Yes it would be. That's not what Thanksgiving is for. Do it on New Years.

Unless they ALL know already, then Yes, many feeling will be hurt. There's always one who'll be upset & start an arguement.
