That red mark is 'sindhoor' a red powder that the Pundit (Hindu priest) applies during religious ceremonies. It's like being blessed. It is given to men and women alike. I think you are confusing tilak, which is given by the Hindu priest to men and women both, with the decorative 'bindi', which is a small sticker that women wear on their forehead, for fashion. They are two different substances, for different purposes.---
