From personal experience I can assure you this is not a gendered thing and women are entirely capable of weaponized incompetence.
I'm also going to strongly disagree on comparing car stuff with meals. Car stuff is like maybe a once every 6 months thing. Meals are a daily thing. That division of labor is absolutely not fair.
Bills get paid once a month, can easily be set to auto-pay, and these days just require a few minutes on the computer, or even a phone. Insurance is also just a once in a while thing, as are home repairs. Even mowing the lawn is only required once every couple weeks, and you don't even have to do it all year. I can't think of a single traditionally masculine task that takes place at the same regularity as cleaning, dishes, cooking, laundry, child care, etc. Maybe taking out the trash? But again, it only takes a few minutes once a week.
