People might ask your age for no reason at all- they just want to know! I don't really know WHY they want to know, you should ask them. Another reason is they're just being nosy and that is when it is considered rude.

People typically ask other people about their ages for one of three reasons:

  1. Genuine Interest as friends or co-workers; knowing someone's age can give you a sense of how educated they are (for children), whether they have children or not, and whether they are in the acceptable age range to be a friend or romantic partner.
  2. Government/Insurance Form Filing often requires one person to fill out a form with key life information about yourself, so there may be a request for one person to provide personal details (including age). This is usually done to calculate risk and/or concretize identity.
  3. Identity Theft requires concrete personal information in order to create a replica identity. As a result, identity thieves will typically ask a person to report on his personal information in order to create this replica.
