Why is it feminine?

Solicitud is feminine because it derives from the Latin "sollicitudo" (feminine noun), which itself comes from "sollicitus" (anxious/concerned); Latin nouns ending in "-tudo" were systematically feminine, and this gender was preserved when the word entered Spanish. The "-tud" ending in Spanish consistently produces feminine nouns, maintaining the Latin pattern.
