Don't let people put ideas in your head. People can be made to think they committed a crime just through the power of suggestion. It's a phenomenon that police have often exploited to frame suspects during interrogations.
If you can't remember being abused then you probably weren't. The world isn't full of monsters lurking around every corner. Your father could be attracted to you. It happens and he didn't ask to have those feelings if he does. Gently let him know that you're uncomfortable with his commenting on your body. He might get mad but he'll get over it. He needs to know that he can't act on any feelings that he might have, and that they are UNWELCOME. If he has any good in him and values the father daughter relationship you two have, then on some level he'll appreciate it and be relieved. If not, then you'll have to think about withdrawing from the relationship.
Agreed, once again Ellenna is attempting to spread her misguided liberal opinions to the poor girl, she doesn't realize that by introducing such sick thoughts to the normal situation of a father complementing his daughter will likely ruin the relationship between the both of them. If nothing inappropriate happened there is nothing to worry about. The fact that everyone is trying to over-diagnose situations is very alarming, most fathers compliment their daughters looks and yes that includes, if it makes you uncomfortable you could always lightly tell him to stop
for example
Dad: Your looking good in that dress Isabella
You:Dad! Stop!(in a joking tone)"
Dad: Laughs and continues on with his day
Its pretty simple, although if he does start making physical advances on you that is totally inappropriate and you have every right to no longer to to him.
IIN that my dad makes comments about my body & makes me uncomfortable?

Agree, I think complimenting people is completely normal. Thank you
