Turns out I was too low and too stretched out which put too much weight on my girl parts - bike shorts or no bike shorts. Ouch! After changing the stem, I could ride on pretty much any saddle I wanted.

How does the fit of this bike compare to what you've been previously comfortable with?

Yeah maybe your bars are too low. I know it's not cool or anything, but having the flats of your bars close to the height of your saddle will take a lot of pressure off of your junk.
