I think stepdad may just be having problems letting go. It sounds like he's been around for a while, so he probably sees you as his own daughter and thinks he is looking out for your best interest. You may just need to have a heart to heart and explain that if he continues to do this that you'll never get to grow up, get married, and have grandbabies for him - NOT that that is what you are looking for right this minute.
On the other hand, if he's (stepdad) kinda new then this could be a huge underlying issue between you two. Kinda his way of exerting control over you... I would then have a heart to heart with Mom and explain that if stepdad is going to continue to do this he is going to ruin not only his relationship with you, but the relationship between you and the rest of the family as well because they let it continue.
I could be way off base here, but this has been my experience with dealing with "steps".
