“Man or woman” asks George in movie Phenomenon during the test scene when asked “how old is a person born in 1928”.

I understand the dead or alive and timezone part but don’t get his it matters if it’s man or women. Is it just bad writing?

It doesn’t matter. It’s a movie, and even clever scriptwriters aren’t always clever. Or it’s supposed to make you think George is being pedantic rather than inquisitive (or at least make it seem like Bob thinks that at the beginning of the questioning, based on his exasperated tone after a few questions).
