I feel sad and empty

I'm an adult, but my mom is still very controlling about certain things. Whenever I buy clothes she wants me to wear and show, if it's revealing she asks me to return it (even a crop top or off shoulder is too much for her) so today I decided I won't stand for her shit anymore and bought stuff I wanted to wear, it can't be returned so there's no point of her getting mad at me. I went back home and I showed my family the clothes I got, well, my mom as always had a disgustful look on her face. I thought my brother and father would react a bit differently, all they said was "maybe these kind of clothes will look good on you if you weren't fat"
I braced myself for the absolute worst reaction, so I wasn't surprised. Still, I felt really sad. I'm a grown woman yet I don't have the freedom to act on my own and as long as my parents help me with money and necessities I will be under their control. I can't do anything about it, and that makes me feel very sad and empty.

you took a small step by pushing back with clothes you start small then go from there. your family don’t deserve you. your mother should learn to compromise, and your brother and father are sexist pigs my god. good luck babe

That’s just kinda how it is if you didn’t rebel a lot when you were younger they still think you’re some kind of child
