Again, it’s not how DILs are treated [i]in the Jewish community[/i]; it’s how they’re treated [i]by individual families[/i] whether they’re Jewish or not. [/quote]
This is what I am not sure about. There definitely are cultural differences. It is not just a question of religion
You need to know more. There surely are a lot of variations within families, but that doesn't mean there is no cultural bias[/quote]

It's 2019. Any community that is not Orthodox has Jews By Choice, and even C shuls have intermarried families with unconverted non-Jewish spouses.   We have sephardic/mizrahi families (IE Jews from the mid east and north africa mainly, who never spoke Yiddish or had anything to do with eastern european Jewish culture) we have people raised in very assimilated households who have returned to religions, whose culture is practically anglo-saxon.

Ie while there is of course a big culturat content to Judaism and Jewish identity, almost any Jewish community the OP is likely to encounter will have experience with people from different cultural backgrounds. [/quote]

To clarify, most Orthodox communities have at least some Jews by Choice as well. [/quote]
