Afraid to exercise

I am a 23 trans girl been socially transitioning for over a year now. I'm not on E and I'm scared to even start cause my dad is convinced it would absolutely wreck my health and he's made me doubt myself. But that's not what I'm here to talk about.

I'm trying to get my life together and get into healthier habits and one of the habits I wanna do is weight training. I love feeling strong and lifting heavy things and I wanna do that but I'm afraid I'll develop the gym bro physique and not be able to even look feminine anymore. I feel restricted and afraid to do exercises like bench press, shoulder workouts, bicep curls and stuff which are my favourite exercises. Any advice? I don't know what to do. I just wanna weight train like a normal person but still be feminine. I don't wanna be a gym bro :(
