Your poll and your question in your OP don’t match. I answered what I do. I live in a mixed community, I’m sure there are those who shake and those who don’t.

Sanzer women don't but everyone else I know does.

Eta Now over the second days of Yom tov I read the interview with the Sanz Klausenburger Rebbetzin in the Ami Living and I see she actually says the same! And that they don't eat in the sukkah

I do. It takes 10 seconds, so not that hard, as opposed to pretty much everything else we're not obligated in.

In my family women don't eat until after shaking lulav and esrog. It's possible that once or twice many years ago I was in a situation where I didn't have one available until late afternoon so I did eat before shaking.

(I also don't eat before hearing kiddush on shabbos or yom tov. Not sure if it's connected.)

Everyone I know shakes the lulav.
We're DL/MO but my family members and neighbors are chassidish and yeshivish and Sefardi and all the women I know shake the lulav at some point during each day of Sukkot.
Maybe here and there women forget but never heard of anyone davka not shaking the lulav.

Yes, always. Single women living independently acquire their own Arba Minim, and married women and singles living at home with parents use their husband's, father's or brother's.
