I don't mind being asked my age per se, I just don't like being asked my age when it's obvious that I'm being sized up based on it. If someone is just curious, that's cool with me. It's a bit like someone asking how much you make... ask it the wrong way and I'll get offended, if it's in context (for example, a friend who's looking to find another place to work), it doesn't even occur to me that it might be offensive.
