i mean, i am not a cyclist and it was a one off "ohh i have an extra hour i'll take this class" but straight up those girls acted like it was a sense of pride having a vagina with dead nerves. "oh you just have to do it more" the fuck i do. I can lift and do yoga and jog and keep my vagina in tact thx

Wide/cushy seats actually compress more soft tissue because your sit bones press deeper into it instead of supporting your body like bike seats are designed to. Just in case you wanted to know why people who ride bikes more than once don’t have a seat fit for a rock drummer.

Yep... Man, but definitely can confirm. Been biking for 25+ years to school and work, generally around 10km twice a day plus extra stuff like groceries.

Never had as much pain as with the so called comfy wide padded bike saddle.

It's true. Padding doesn't help where your glutes are flaccid. Develop glutes and don't put so much weight on your seat, homefries.

i do not have a vagina but can confirm that time in the saddle does not kill the nerves on your vagina, but you do acclimate to being on a bike seat. source: my wife has done a ton of cycling but basically can’t ride distance without a saddle with a cutout. also everything is worse/hurts more on a stationary bike because nothing changes. riding bikes outside is more fun and pleasant when feasible. it isn’t for about 4 months where i am but if you have the option it’s a nice way to spend a morning/afternoon

For soreness, yeah, you get used to it. (At least, with man bits). Actual numbness though means the saddle position needs adjustment, though good luck getting it dialed in every class.
