Guys, how would you react in this situation? Do you find it a little offensive?

While we were at a lunch party, my manager was seated beside me. My other colleague asked him about his son's age to which he replied "two years, let's see how he grows up".. after which he turns to me and asks "tell us how kids grow up in Mumbai".. Me, being an unmarried woman in late 20s, felt awkward and jokingly said "bus maarna padhta hai thoda".. WEIRDDD!
