Common sense says you should ride a seat that is comfortable. If you are feeling numb or are in pain, try a different seat. Until a powerful, well constructed study demonstrates (repeatedly) some factor that definitively contributes to impotence, you are just wasting your money chasing the media hype of the week if you buy a new saddle.
