Low-voltage electrical and try to work your way up to networking and systems?
I'm not a low-voltage electrician, just a salaried IT and data professional who gladly indulges her penny-pinching bosses with a little a physical labour to make my job more interesting.
But running data cabling isn't terribly difficult or challenging work. And if, as I said, you start picking up the skills to design and plan networking layout (including the active devices like switches, routing, and wifi), then there are decent career options out there for that. And anything telecom/ISP seems to be bustling work.
The actual work will involve a lot of ladders and performing work above your head. That's usually what "gets me" when I DIY it rather than bring in a contractor, it just fucking sucks putting screws into a ceiling by hand.
As for loads and lifting, a 1000ft spool of high-quality commercial networking cable is about 50 lbs, so I'd aim for being able to lug that around if your employer is too cheap to give you smaller spools to wind it onto. You might also have to position server racks and their contents (including holding up for wall mounting).

Again, not my career, but it's fun stuff whenever I have the excuse to do it.

Data center tech or telecommunications tech. Both are very clean working environments that don't require a lot of heavy lifting.

No, that's literally my average day. 
I very much have a womb, I have ovaries, I have eggs but probably less now that I'm in my 30s. My husband validates my housewife existence. My parents are proud that I'm raising two very healthy well-adjusted kids. Men somehow still find me attractive and can't believe my kids are teenagers. My bone structure is a perfect hourglass shape, because I refuse to become a dumpy old poor excuse for a wife. My husband doesn't drink often, but when he does, we have a really wild time in bed. I am happy every single day of my life. My smiles are genuine and plentifully bestowed upon my husband and children. The only unbearable weight that threatens to crush me is joyful bliss. If I do buy roping, it is for various home decorating projects or my backyard garden trellis to further beautify my comfortable home. My proud parents are visiting for Easter to have a wonderful time with me and my family. My body will decay and turn into dust at some point, that is true, but my children will be there to pray at my grave for my eternal soul. This is my fate, and it is wonderful! 
Housewives are not abused slaves; they are lovingly supported by their appreciative husbands. Birth is beautiful if you avoid unnecessary medical interventions. I know plenty of families, and not a single woman has killed herself "shortly after giving birth"--where does that even come from? Touch grass indeed.

Nah, I only really go to the rexdoestheNYT if I am suuuuper super stumped on a really old crossword that has a specific trendy time-relevant clue or word in it. Like I am on a streak of 338 puzzles right now (set a new time record for yesterday's puzzle in fact!), and I have done all of the puzzles from current day, working backwards, to June of 2016 so far..... When I finish the new xword, I just go backwards in the calendar archive and do them backwards in time: Sa, then F, then Th, then W, then Tu, then M, then Su --and I've noticed some interesting dynamics with clues and how it goes when the increasingly difficult week goes increasingly easy backwards. Anyway, I just solve the old puzzles until I fall asleep. You run into some really obscure stuff from 7 years ago that is no longer relevant today. Also, it's a whole lot less faggy back then too! Highly recommend older crosswords.

If you can’t handle a WOMAN calling you out for being an obsessive feminist, you will not survive as a tradie.
The only reason women survive an office environment is air conditioners and HR departments.
As an HVAC tech, you will have a bunch of drooling apes plotting to bang you. As an electrician, you will be mocked and treated like a child. 
The fact that you think electrical and hvac are comfy jobs that don’t require lifting heavy shit and getting your hands dirty means that you’re only interested in trades because:
>I just want to be like the boys teehee
Or
>$$$$ :)
There’s a reason the only women in trades are dykes. Any well adjusted woman with a brain would stay away.
I can’t imagine being a homeowner who has to decide whether he should pay 1000s of dollars to replace his furnace by a woman, or 50$ to pay some meth head off of Craigslist.

I also have a female cousin that did what she called "yard sale-ing", she would buy stuff on craigslist and FB for super cheap and sometimes free.... And have a yard sale every weekend to resell the stuff she picked up.
I also met a gal who did roofing. She joined her husband's family business and did the cleanup work (making sure they didn't leave behind screws and such all over the ground), but she would also help in other ways, she just wasn't as good as the other stuff like the guys were.

Probably an electrician. Plumbing involves bending over and kneeling enough for joints to act up in normal people. Dry wall involving breathing in enough dust to coat your twice over. Concrete involving bending over and working with sludge mixed with lye. In framing you have to literally lift walls and wood beams regularly enough that if you see a fat framer they tend to be on drugs or very good at fucking off when it's time to stand walls. No clue about hvav but I've seen plenty of fat plumbers and electricians on job sites so it shouldn't be too physically intensive compared to the other trades. The pay is also higher, but the requirements are higher as well. A pretty good rule of thumb I've learned is the more physically intensive, the lower the pay, and the lower the entry requirements beyond speak any language with possible literacy the more likely you are to have South Americans and Mexicans doing it

I'd take a large sack of potatoes or a small woven rug. Really I'd pay to get her off my hands so don't call my bluff. Really though if you weren't completely restart to being around chemicals then maybe instrument mechanic. You might have some 2nd hand exposure but it's not a primary job function like spraying insecticide or paint. Steel mills, refineries, chemical plants, powerstations(nuclear, coal, diesel, NG), water treatment plants, pipelines, pumphouses, etc. You work on different electronic measuring devices like temperature probes, pressure sensors, chemical analyzers. Installation, maintenance and calibration. Worked at a plant for a while that had 8 instrumentation people and 3 were women. Aaron far as hands on work goes I see a higher percentage of women do that than anything else at plants I go to(aside from hole or fire watch) and second after that would be plant/boiler operators but if you don't want chemical exposure that's not the route you want to go.

I was going to say this too, the only thing with instrumentation is that sometimes you have to calibrate scales with huge weights up to 1000kg or take control valves off pipework but nobody would expect someone to do that if they didn't feel comfortable with it. If you work in a clean room you will be inhaling a lot of IPA / sporeicide and crap like that but overall it's probably the best one for women and people who don't want to break their back, though it's not completely perfect.

electricians need to be strong and tough. are you strong and tough? like can you lift 40-120 lb objects and work with guys that can do that easily for 9-12 hours a day while listening to really bad music on the radio?

Yeah I remember all those lifetime movies about big powerful male executives so happy that they ignored their families at Christmas time to make more money.

There's three things that make people happy, money is not one of them once you're past 65k a year.

Your career, if it's fulfilling. Not just the money you.make in it. How it makes you identify and the community it brings you into and the people you help doing it.

Your family. Uh oh. Even men love their family and women about 10% more than men. And women have a much more strict timer, like if you haven't had a baby by the time your 30 you almost definitely will not have one for one reason or another. Like you're too frigid or there are no good men left in the age brackets you're attracted to.

Your community. Helping and being involved in your community

--but I aspire to or genuinely am completely selfish. I just want to watch movies. I am definitely not going to be a miserable catlady in my 50s even though everyone older, smarter, and with more life experience than me tells me I definitely 100% will. I am super woman. I am super smrt gonna enjoy my miserable loneliness.

We need to stop lying to women and telling them they can be successful strong single men when that even makes men fucking miserable. Op is not the one in 100 girl that is actually going to be happy like that. She's just a basic bitch like everyone else

You know what else? You van actually have a career after you have kids. There's no timer on that.

this hits too close to home, and I'm a dude. Spent my early 20's blowing off the idea of kids since 'I'd rather have free time and money'. My attitude was definitely a factor in my ex leaving me. Chased my material dreams, now I'm in my 30's, solid career making more than I need to live comfortably, living in a state where I had no existing friends or family, all to come home to an empty house. Finally dawned on me when a buddy asked what my plan was at 70+ years old, where the best outcome is dying before your spouse, if you even have one. I fantasize about quitting my job constantly, I'm growing more and more anti-social and angry by the day. The career path leads to nothing.

Wise post. It makes these women even more miserable. For they'll end up glorified secretaries in their 40s working useless "Director of People Management" paper pushing jobs in HR, wondering where their youth and beauty went and when they'll finally be CEO Of Everything. With no family to feed which is the thing that makes it kinda sorta bearable for men. They'll also make most men miserable because throughout their life they'll shun every man but the CEO because as a Director they deserve more!

Yeah. I respect women who chose to be mothers a lot more than some pantsuited, backstabbing office politics harpy. It's not a small feat for a woman to chose being a mother either. All the harpies in her life will scream, bully and belittle her for choosing the option they deep down know will make her a lot happier than they themselves can ever be in the long run.

It certainly does. I moved back to where I grew up at least. Comfy to be speaking my native dialect again. "quit" that career, with quite a bang, too (got cancelled for wrongthink because I was bored enough to post a couple of mild, not even close to /pol/ tier redpills in work channels). Still anti-social, angry and childless but at least I no longer need to quietly glower at another HR video conference where some HR cunt is preaching the virtues of the holy rainbow fag flag.

i lived basically as a housewife when i was between college and highschool. spent all day cleaning up, tending to animals, and watching tv. i didnt have any purpose to life besides waiting on my family to get home. i wanted to kill myself.
congrats to you anon if this isnt a copypasta but not everyone is content to live life that way
--- 2598072

You weren't doing a very good job cleaning up or you didnt have kids. It's a lot of work. You don't have 40 or even 20 hours spare a week if you're not fucking off eating bonbons all day.

Don't become an electrician. I'm in your same position and made that mistake, and now I'm in too deep to back out.

The work is miserable and mismanaged, 50 year old men will point at you while talking to men your age and talk about "setting you two up", nobody will ever respect you even when you're up against literal crackheads they constantly and openly discuss firing, and you will never be allowed to do actual electrical work while half your bosses baby you and the other half actively gives you the hardest work possible rather than just being realistic about your abilities. I have had bosses who act like I don't know how to wire a 3-way switch five years in, and others who berate me for not being able to hook up a switchgear from start to finish without a single print or layout, or for being able to pull 1000 feet of 2/0 off the reel from the other end of the pull, by hand, by myself. It sucks. Don't do it. Get an office job.

Car electrician. Good ones are in high demand. You'll be respected for being a competent woman in this field. Having smaller hands will benefit you in many ways - as guys who are crazy about cars usually have "man" hands and are unable to reach wiring effectively inside cramped spaces. You won't need to carry heavy shit. The working environment is relatively safe. DIY fixers will be on their way out too, since the next generations are raised on globohomo phones. Cars increasingly have more and more gadgets/automation inside them that's gonna need fixing. I'm rambling but whatever.

Consider locksmithing. No physically intense days and having smaller hands is a huge bonus. You get to work by yourself 90% of the time, only thing that sucks is you will be sitting in the back of a cramped van often.
