It’s rubs me the wrong way

This is def a generational thing and I have to question my views etc on this too. Let’s flip it and imagine your partner was pissed you didn’t do majority of housework/washing up etc. it’s similar in that we’re falling into gender expectations whereas a lot of men wouldn’t have been shown or know how to do these things either nowadays..
You're such a cool superstar mum for doing this. Setting a great example for your LO that ladies can do things for themselves! My partner mainly builds things and even gets annoyed if I haven't helped but at this point with walking toddler someone needs to keep him occupied to not get into the loose parts and screws so really it has to be one person doing it. I did his push walker. Bit different if you're pregnant and physically struggling though. I think that's a main reason why men end up setting up nursery furniture
I think you need to check your prejudice a bit here. Just because he's a man doesn't mean he needs to do all the building / DIY stuff in the same way that you being the woman doesn't mean you need to do all the cooking and cleaning. Both those stereotypes are very outdated!
My ex never did anything around the house like fix things or change lightbulbs or put up shelves. It was such an ick for me. I felt like such a man doing all of it….i do like doing it and am super handy but he would never even suggest he helped. When he did it (once in a blue moon) he’d get angry and just mess up all the energy in the house. I just ended up taking over. I did most of the housework too. Made all the babies cots/decorated room. If things were split fairly it wouldn’t have been such an issue but I thought the minimum he could do would be hang a picture or something!
Just because he's a man doesn't mean he's good at things like that. I just do it myself as men never read the instructions and it drives me mad.
