Some Indian women have a red dot on their forheads,, Is that supposed to be a target or what?

Q. couldnt resist a funny question..

A. The 'red dot' is known as a 'bindi' in Indian Language. Bindi is an auspicious makeup worn by young Hindu girls and women on their forehead. The term is derived from bindu, the Sanskrit word for a dot or a point. It is usually a red dot made with vermilion (finely powdered bright red mercuric sulphide). Considered a blessed symbol of Uma or Parvati (Indian Goddess), a bindi signifies female energy and is believed to protect women and their husbands. Traditionally a symbol of marriage (hence the widows did not wear vermilion), it has now become a decorative item and is worn today by unmarried girls and women of other religions as well. No longer restricted in color or shape, bindis today are seen in many colors (not just red)and designs and are manufactured with self-adhesives and felt.

Just like people with tattoos aren't jokers, Indian women with red dots aren't targets.
