I've been looking into becoming an electrician, since I'm good at that sort of thing, and I've already started my schooling, but I'm afraid people will think I'm low class. Do you think women who work in trades are low class.

depends on attitude and how you present yourself.
you are going to be more susceptible to stereotyping.
mostly people are going to drive opinions about your class from your speech, attitudes and dress..

>electrician

Once you get actual work prepare for hours of rage because some retard fucked up before you, making your work much harder than it needs to be

>they are
i worked in construction, they are nice people but my god the garbage drama in there lives is astounding.
Its unorthodox, but no.

I don't think anyone is low class, I'm just afraid of being perceived as that

if you are good at waht you do does it really matter if its a 'trade'. most men will respect it, though some might see you as less feminine. but respect and feminimity dont always go together.
as long as you can look pretty outside of work you are fine.

Fellow woman in the trade business here, there's nothing low class about doing manual labour, but if you're already considering that maybe its not the job for you. Education often has you dealing with sexism plus sexual harassment if you're nice looking, and when you're on the job people will try to haggle the price with you.
If you really want to pursue this kind of job career I don't think you should care much about your gender and prioritise being critical of your own capabilities.
