Women aren't even a minority. Come on, aspiring webcomic artist, you're not working on a goddamn 80's saturday morning cartoon. If you can't imagine a female/poc character doing similar stuff as your precious white males, you've got some self-reflecting to do.

Most characters you can just write first and then flip a coin on which gender/race they end up being, anyway. It's that easy really.

That's similar to what I do. Gender I usually choose at the beginning of creating the character, but I don't think about race until I'm doing character designs, and by that point I've already got their role in the story and few basic personality traits down. Obviously, after I've given them a race I think about how that will affect them, but by that point they are well-developed enough that they most likely won't turn into a bunch of offensive clichés.

maybe i'm strange, then, because i always doodle character concepts first until i come up with a design i like and then write their character based on the design.

You see, I thought I was strange because I feel like most people do it your way. But maybe neither of us are. Whatever works best is the best method for that person :)
