Short booty shorts and ***s. My dad's insane!

okay, long story short.

My best friend wears short shorts. Like REALLY short.
My dad won't let me hang out with her cuz he thinks if people see us together, they'll think that i'm a whore like she is.
He thinks she's a whore just cuz of the way she dresses.

also, he won't let me wear shorts like1 maybe 2 inches above my knees!
I don't want to wear short booty shorts like my best friend does, but I don't want to always wear long shorts!

I feel like I live in a prison!

My dad isl ike trying to controll my life!
I'm gonna be 16 this year, and i still can't even wear shorts like above my knee!

And keeping me away from my BEST FRIEND!
she's my best friend! And he's trying to keep me away from her!
She's not a whore, she just likes to dress like that!
And just because i'm with her doesn't make me a whore!
I don't get it!
How will people think I'm a whore if i'm not even dressed in anything like short shorts or tight clothes?

UGh!

I live in SOUTH TEXAS!
It gets freaking HOT here!
like 110!

Grrr!

I'm so upset!

anyone have parent like this?
Also,
What should I do???

He keeps getting mad at me and just yelling and screaming and cussing at me everythime i try to explain my point of view to him.
it's impossible to!
He won't let me!
he just yells. and never gives me a chance to talk.
Then tells me not to talk back.
I'm like WTF!

grrr!
I'm pissed...
