I'll think on this a bit, but at the moment I can't remember anyone tackling this specific subject. I do believe there's something to be said for the theory. People tend to write what they know; if they're WASP's, their characters will tend to be white Anglo-Saxon Protestants, simply because that's what their subconscious is familiar with.
I'm ready for a fight if someone accuses me of being predjudice in any way, but most of my main characters are white males, even in Buffy fanfiction!
