Female motorist, 31, says petrol pumps are SEXIST because their ‘male designed’ handles hurt her small hands

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 Morgan snapped pictures of herself struggling to grasp a petrol pump to 'prove her point' to partner Jared Griffiths that filling up their Ford Tourneo Independence was a strain on her small hands.

The 31-year-old private tutor from south west London accused garages of 'everyday sexism' on social media when sharing the struggle she experiences when filling up her van as she believes they're designed specifically with men in mind.

Women used to appreciate being treated as delicate treasures by men.
Now they are rough and tumble, rugged individuals on a mission to . . . .

They probably were designed for men, since that's who used to fill up your tank, check your oil and clean your windows... and sometimes checked your tire pressure. I guess that was sexist, too.
I'm a big guy and sometimes hit my head on doorways. Am i going to file a suit against door makers???
Get a grip... seriously and literally.

Suck it up butter cup..if tranny men can run and swim against women. You should be able to pump your own gas.
If you go electric. Are you gonna complain about the size of the large male plug in the tiny female receptacle too? Bigger is better as most say.
You know you could Move across the pond to NJ and they will pump it for you.

Large penis' are sexist as well, Hon. You won't be able to wrap around that, either! You had better shop around for a soy boy to marry, lol!

I'd tell the dumb bitch to use both hands if her hands are too damn small to grip the handle. I'm so mean because she has to be stupid if she can't figure it out and has to get help to pump gas (that just sounds like a lazy excuse to get out of getting out of the car and doing it herself) Poor thing. Nothing wrong with the pumps. There's something wrong with her head.
