A mother is accusing petrol stations of sexism because their huge 'male-designed' pump handles hurt her 'small hands' - and now has to get her partner to fill up their van. Melanie said: 'I have fairly small hands. I'm short, I'm 5ft 3, so I'm fairly small generally but I imagine there aren't many men who have the same size hands as me. 'I've never timed filling up the van but I know when I'm filling it up I'm waiting for it to end.' Melanie said: 'When I was younger I thought I had small hands, but as an adult my hands are no bigger.
