I like to meet many kinds of people but I'm constantly surprised when I ask if someone is Jewish and I'm totally off.
Maybe due to intermarriage etc. the Jewish "look," if there ever was one, is very unreliable.
What do my fellow Jews think of this? Do you bemoan this fact or celebrate it?
How often are you wrong (what %?) thank you. I just find this interesting and I don't mean to offend anyone.

Jews were scattered all over the world.
If you'll meet Black Ethiopian Jews will you guess they are Jews?If you'll meet Fair complexion Russian Jews will you guess they are Jews?
I think what you have in mined is a "darker" white person with brown eyes/hair. Well you're wrong. So turn off your jewdar for good!

I try to turn my "jewdar" off for that very reason.
unless the person is in a Jewish place or is dressed Jewishly I try not to make that assumption.

You sound like you couldn't pick Samuel L. Jackson out of a plane full of snakes and white people.
Stick to crossword puzzles and hang your 'judar' up for good.
