It’s not uinladylike, but it is rude to ask her that question (rude to ask anyone except a child, really). The thing about not telling children’s ages, Yossi Z., is NOT an American mishegas. It is a JEWISH “mishegas” (though I think people have a right to their mishegasin) that people are worried about ayin hara regarding their kids, so there are many people who will never tell you how old their kids are, or how many kids they have. I don’t hold that way, but that’s my prerogative.
