Yeah, I ask this question, either of men or women, because I refuse to play the "mind-reading" game, which is probably the most insulting of all human games.
I don't presume to read another person's mind and when I truly care about that person, I enjoy listening to them talk and express what they are thinking about. It's another way of saying, "I care about you and I want to know what's on your mind."
Inflection and tone of voice are also important when asking this question.
With MM, I often times ask it in a very playful tone, or in a tone dripping with sexual innuendo. It then becomes a signal or prelude to foreplay and/or sex talk.
So there. I don't think it's a dumb question at all. I think what is inane to presume what somewhat else is thinking.
Peace
