For centuries, Hindu women have worn a dot on their foreheads. Most of us have naively thought this was connected with marriage or religion. The Indian Embassy in Washington, D.C. Has recently revealed the true story.
When a Hindu woman gets married, she brings a dowry into the union. On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the dot to see whether he has won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop or a motel in the United States . If nothing is there, he must take a job answering telephones providing technical support
