I am having some serious pains in my taint though. I just lowered my saddle a bit in an attempt to help that. I think that I was too forward on the saddle in order to reach the bottom of the drop bar comfortably, which made most of my weight rest on the nose of my saddle, which has direct contact with the taint.

Anyways, I'm hoping that takes care of it, or that I develop a nice callous, so that there's no pain.

I'm thinking this is a bit too much information. What did we do before the internet, eh?
In general you shouldn't be raising or lowering your saddle because of those issues. If you feel like you're to far forward there are adjustments to move the saddle forward, or back, without changing it's height. On most saddles you can also adjust the forward or backwards tilt of the saddle.
