32 points and Egyptian small talk

Waiting to tee off on the first hole:

Starter: "How old are you?"
Me: "That's rude to ask a lady!"
Starter: "Ah, no, I would never ask an old lady the same question."

Is this the standard Egyptian chat-up line? I already knew we have some cultural differences, but this...

Starter tries again: "What's your handicap?"
He is still after a number, but at least we are into more comfortable small talk!
