How many women are Capricorn at all

29.2 days the Sun spends in Capricorn this year — the 12th longest of the twelve. The signs are not equal.
29.3 days of the year fall under it once births are weighted by month — December is the peak.
8.3% is what an even split would give. Because sign lengths differ, the real share does not land there — and it is the same for both sexes.

These figures are identical for the man — nothing in the chart responds to gender.
