You don't hike on your taint.

A bit of weight on your back while biking is fine, but it gets untenable surprisingly quickly.

In general, you shouldn't be putting weight on your perineum (taint) when in the saddle. You should be putting weight on your ischial tuberosities (sit bones) instead. The former can result in blood circulation problems, and possible damage to the nerves and urethra.

I feel like OP knows what it’s like to have a heavy backpack on a bike
