Most of the India kids in my generation are brought up as Submissiveness, even like or not that you have to follow what parents say, that's has been taken upto the extent like what education kids study decided by parents. I felt shyness when I went to college as its coeducation compare to my schooling was in boys school. It takes lot of efforts to come out from submissiveness or sometimes we used to it throughout our lifetime... All the best for your transformation towards coming out of it.
I think conditioning definitely plays a big part of it, whether cultural or societal.
I think awareness is key to behaviour change. If you're not aware of it, you can't do anything about it because you don't know it's there. Certain behaviours have become standard that it's viewed as the "norm".
