I saw those seats with the cut outs recently at the bike shop. It didn't conjure a feeling of masculinity.

There are people who have problems with saddles and people who don't. The ones who don't will invariably deny that problems exist at all, or claim it's the user's fault for not being professionally fit. The need to go to such extremes to avoid, um, 'unpleasant' side effects argues that there *is* a problem. For those that have the problems, other solutions should be available. Cutouts, noseless saddles, even recuments can solve the problem. All have their own drawbacks; so the user has to be willing to make compromises to get the benefit.

I'm human,I don't perch on anything and humans don't have cores,apples have cores.

All of the humans I've ever met sit and have torsos.

I think J & R Tobacco invented the first bike seat.

I am suprised that on one corrected the obvious flaw. It's not a seat, its a saddle. - Remember the Marlboro Man? He rode a saddle too and look what happened to him.
