Feeling down and resentful towards husband.. going to work soon (part time). Need somewhere to rant

Husband earns a lot more but still expects me to contribute proportionately e.g I contribute 1k and he contributes 4k. We are still paying mortgage half half. I just feel resentful because I know people or friends where husband will just pay for everything.. but we have joint acc so we just use from there. Trying not to be calculative since we are saving for a house where he’ll paying more since he has more savings but just can’t help it… Also feeling more down everyday.. can post natal blues be so late? About 3 months plus already

I feel this is a societal problem with expecting women to be equal to man. By nature and psychology, nobody is equal right. There's a reason why women birth and care and thus cant be expected to work financially and be home managers and raise the family etc. Theres also a reason why men are stronger physically, neutrally swayed by emotions, do tasks differently too But then theres super feminists shouting for equality causing a mess in common sense lol. Its time to sit and talk it out. Singapore economy sucks so expecting both parents to 50/50 is stupid n rude. Maybe do a ratio share for the finances ? And sharing the workload and mental load appropriately too? I really hope u and ur family will get though this!!!
