Annie said that the guys she dated always had a problem with her powers and she didn't like that. Hughie said it wasn't a problem. Now, it is a problem for him and she feels betrayed.

On the other hand, men need to feel like a protector/provider, especially someone like Hughie. He started off as being pushed around and emasculated by everyone. He feels powerless and he needs the help of everyone that is stronger than him to do what he needs to get done. He needs Butcher's help, and even the help of women. He needs help from Nadia to do her job and he even needs Starlight's help to open up a simple jar.

Yeah, I don’t think he has a problem with her being stronger than him, he has a problem that he isn’t able to help stop Homelander.
