It shouldn’t because when riding in the drops or in an aero/aggressive position, the weight of your upper body should be on the front part of your pelvic bones (pubic rami). Even if riding in a relaxed position, the weight of your body should not rest on the perineum and should be on your sit bones.

Besides finding the right size and shape of saddle for your body, you have to dial in the rest of your fit on your bike. Everything from reach, handlebar height, saddle height, saddle fore and aft angle.
