The Red Dot

FINALLY SOMEONE CLEARED THIS UP!
For centuries, Hindu women have worn a red spot on their foreheads. We have always naively thought that it had something to do with their religion.
The true story has recently been revealed by the Indian Embassy in Washington, D.C.
When one of these women gets married, she brings with her, a dowry.
On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the red spot to see if he has won a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop or a motel in the United States.
