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..

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.
