It was quite the competition for the title of SheWired's Gay Woman of the Year! But now that a new year has begun, we have a new Gay Woman of the Year for 2010.
There were a total of 12,558 votes for all of our fantastic nominees. While we added a voting component to encourage interactivity and to give readers a chance to weigh in, all of the women from the list deserve recognition for their outstanding contributions to the community.
That said, here are the top three Women of the Year. In a perfect world we would get them to appear in a video together. Hmmm.... How can we make this happen?
3rd place: Chely Wright - 3,085 votes
2nd place: Tucky Williams - 3,347 votes
Drum roll....
The woman you voted to be SheWired's Gay Woman of the Year for 2010 is....

Tracy Ryerson - 3,750 votes
A breakout star of The Real L Word, Tracy Ryerson defied the rules of reality television, always coming across as the sweetest, nicest -- and let’s be honest-- hottest girl on the show. And that may have been in part to her poignant story arc that focused on Tracy’s relationship and her devotion to her girlfriend’s three children.
Having worked in the film industry in development in films including Oceans 13 and Nancy Drew, among others, Tracy is busy modeling, writing a book and developing a TV series, according to her bio on her Our Fifteen Minutes, the website she launched with her girlfriend Stamie.
And if that weren’t enough, Tracy crossed over to mainstream this summer when TMZ ran bikini shots of her fresh out of the water in Santa Monica.
Congratulations to all of the wonderful women who were nominated!
