Why do some haitian parents feel they have the right to "check" their daughters virginity?

It is an easy temptation that too many Haitian parents, fathers and mothers alike, fall in. They want their daughters to remain "pure". They can't read her diary, they can't hack into her facebook account, and they can't follow her around, but they'll do the next best thing: open her legs and check to see if her hymen is still intact. Whatever happen to trusting that your daughter would make the right choice? or Even trusting that she'll make a mistake that she can learn from?
It is a dreadful mistake that Haitians parents make to rape their daughters of that trust.
Why do they do it? Insecurity, lack of education, disrespect, or it could be that their parents did the same to them.
