My friends and I do make this generalization a bit, but mostly at older men, boomer age. We all know a number of men who will proudly claim they never changed a diaper.
My mother in law and grandmother in law were in amazement at the level of participation I had with my kids. They commented on it a number of times (jokingly telling my wife to lock me down with sex) when they’d see me do almost anything for my own kids.
I mean there are communal events hosted for babies / pre-kindergarden toddlers and it’s almost always, exclusively women. A lot of it is because the men go to work (so sexism) and I hear the women talk about their men. It’s shameful really. I also go to a dads only gathering and lets just say the vibe is completely different for the group games.

I don’t know any new fathers though
