Why is your focuss only on Sinhalese? this can be a common situation to any soceity, any ethnic group. I presume even you are a sinhalese.
Your idea about dependancy inculcated in people since childhood is pretty correct. But how exactly do you relate this as an attribut of being a ponnaya? correct me if I am wrong, my idea of a ponnaya was a person with a bisexual appearance and behaviour.But I do acknowledge the fact that the SL community does label entities as "ponnaya" for his/her decisions, perceptions and moral values, which is not the exact meaning of a typical ponnaya as we know.
