Sit on it.
Hinge forward at your hips (don't bend your back) until you can rest your elbows on your knees.
Stay that way for a few minutes.
If your "soft tissues" object to this treatment, it is likely you would benefit from a saddle with a cutout.
If your "soft tissues" (we're talkin' labia here, ok?) have no extraordinary issues, it is likely that a cutout is unnecessary, and you might end up being one of the folks who complains about the rubbing or pinching of the edges of the cut-out. (more trouble than it is worth)
Nothing is written in stone, ever. But it's helpful to know a bit about tissue volume. Soft tissue complaints during the test should be taken seriously.
