Stuck in a controlling relationship.

I didn't know where to go to vent, I've been with my boyfriend for 6 months so far. We have an apartment, a puppy and my two and a half year old daughter. Previously I worked a full time job while being a single mother and made the mistake of moving in with him an hour and a half away, and quitting my job, he vowed to support us and I took the bait. It wasn't until later I found how controlling and verbally/mentally abusive he can be. I don't have any family. I don't have a job, a car or a license. He made sure to cut off all my friends and monitors my phone closely even though he makes it seem like he doesn't. Today, I decided to wear a crop top, a flannel and black low rise jeans as I have piercings in my hips. We got into a huge argument about my outfit and I told him it's not cool to control what I wear, I don't want to be in a controlling relationship and it hurts what he says to me. He says my outfit is an invitation for men to look. I don't understand that because they look anyways. And I'm his girlfriend, I'm dating him and I love him. I don't think what I was wearing was skimpy. In the midst of our argument he has told me I'm ungrateful for what he does and he doesn't get what he wants or has a say in anything. Every argument has been degrading. I'm a strong feminist and I believe my body belongs to me and not someone else. He cannot accept me for who I am and it hurts even more, I'm a free spirit and I'm sensitive. He has kicked me out multiple times, screamed me down and even went as far as putting his hands on me when he shouldn't. I don't know what to do and I have know where to go. I guess I'm just venting because I have no one to talk to.
