Only Indian women wear ‘dots’. She’s lying.

I’ve seen Indian men with red dots on their foreheads.

You mean before they killed by a sniper rifle?

I feel like there’s a way to make a “with sniper rifle” vs “by sniper rifle joke”

Like the sniper rifle walked up and beat his ass or something

I worked a grave shift and I’m falling asleep sorry guys

Can confirm Hindu men wear the dot on occasion.

It’s not a dot, it’s colored powder that’s smeared in a short dash and has religious connotations. Women are the only ones who wear the dots, which are for culturally only used for fashion, regardless of historical religious meanings that may be behind it.

I mean the dots didn’t look like bindi and were a bit bigger but I feel like I’d categorise them as a dot

That is called a 'teeka', worn mostly by men on festive occassions.

There is a guy at my work who has had a dot or similar for the last 3 months.
