Age is small talk in Chinese, not an intrusion, because it decides how people address each other. 你多大了 is the plain question. The graceful sideways route is 你属什么 - which zodiac animal - since the twelve-year cycle gives away the year without naming a number. 我属虎 is a complete answer and, among people of a similar age, a more elegant one.
