Yeah, because the tendons that attach to the ischial tuberosity are grinding into the saddle as the femur moves. The skin over them gets rubbed, too.

When I was riding on a Serfas Niva, I would feel like the skin was hot and the bone under was bruised.

You want to find a saddle that will support your ischial tuberosities, but also be out of the way of the tendons as you pedal.

If you can sit on the saddle just fine, but have problems at the butt-fold/inner thigh when you move, it could be the saddle just doesn't get out of your way soon enough.
