Perhaps it is also the wealth difference.  I know if I am hanging around someone who is considerably more wealthy than I (male or female) I act differently.  I am more deferential.  I try not to, especially in social settings where we are supposed to be social equals, but it is unavoidable.

You mention more humility in less developed countries.  Maybe it is a little bit of awe.
