if a father belts his 35 year old daughter as punishment for insisting on wearing trousers instead of skirt - isn't this assault?

This really did happen to me at age 35.

My friends told me I should have hit hi him back.

    Yes, of course it's assault.

    Yes, this is assault and you need to not be around your father anymore if he is physically harming you. You're a grown *** woman and I would sue him.
