[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a vaguely rude thing to say and should only be used in response to a rude question. "How much money does your husband make" "Why do you ask?" "So how did you two meet?" "Why do you ask?" The second one would be rude because the person is just making conversation.[/quote] The first one is obviously rude. Do people think the second one is rude? I ask variations of that all the time. Like at a party So how do you know the host? Or to a married couple, How did you two meet? Like after learning one was from California and one from Maine. Seems like a normal getting to know you conversation.[/quote] No, I don't think the second one is rude. The first one is. I have been asked this by foreign coworkers more than once![/quote]
