Today at my home I’m told that I wear short dresses and show my body to attract everyone and that I should get on the streets and start pleasing men because apparently I’m a hooker.

Not a girl, but this is definitely a very wrong thing to say to anyone and I know it hurts when it comes from family but hold your ground
First and foremost thing you have to do is confront and don’t change your stance
They have their archaic thoughts and it is not exactly their fault they were taught that shorts means a wrong girl
But it’s your time to stand your ground and I know you might face a lot of problems so to counter that
If possible move out asap and avoid any such Confrontation till then, but first one is important
It hurts so much right? being called something like a hooker (I’m not even using that word) by your own family. I’ve been in a similar situation but I think less harsh than you. But I can feel your pain. I dont think you can change mindset of these people. they’ve been told and taught this for generations. But you don’t change yourself for these people. Changing yourself would mean that you are wrong, and you aren’t. wearing short dress never defines your character. They still taunt me here and there but nothing I can’t handle.
