Not really. The only reliable way is to look back at family history. Jewish girls/women DO NOT have any identifiable way, unlike Jewish boys that are circumcised. Jewish girls/women are physically identical to any christian or muslim.

From physical appearance alone, you can't tell what religious beliefs someone has.
Sometimes you can tell what religion a person is by what they are wearing. Some Muslim women, for example, wear a veil. However, just because a woman is not wearing a veil does not mean that they aren't Muslim, so there is really no reliable way to tell what religion is on sight unless they're wearing a shirt that says "I AM A CHRISTIAN / MUSLIM / JEW / PAGAN / BUDDHIST / HINDU / ATHEIST / ETC."
Very few people have these sorts of shirts.
Besides, it doesn't matter what religion someone is.

There are no physical differences.
Most American males, Christian or Jewishare circumcised for hygienic reasons.
Morman girls wear special underware, Muslim girls wear the veil to modestly cover the hair and do not wear short skirts/ shorts.

It does not really matter if they are Christians or Muslims. The bloodline is Jewish, and thats that. Many persons are converting to other religions, its their decesion, their choice.Nothing wrong in this.

Can you tell a circumsized man from an uncircumsized one with out looking at it? They do have something similar in the middle east. It's called a clitorectomy. I read about it in Natl Geographic. It's pretty savage.

they don't. just because you are a certain religion doesn't make you look different. my husband and son are not jewish and they are circumsized. it is a preference. religion has nothing to do with looks.

there's no female analogue for circumcision in judaism that i know of - that is, no at-birth procedure etc. so you wouldn't be able to tell just by looking
and clitorectomies (as mentioned by alwaysmoose) are generally performed in west africa as far as i know

well -- i don't know about looking differently, but for older Jewish women, you can always tell them by their "wine"*
"Son, take me to Floooooooooorida!"
