If you put a small square of toilet paper into the water first, that can combat the splash. I have no idea of the science behind it, but it works.
Can’t help you with your dangling-genitals problem, however.
All toilets I met also have a front side of bowl too sloped/close to you know what. I have to constantly use one of my hands to prevent a collision, which can be pretty terrifying depending on where you are. This problem must be widespread, since I’m not really that guy.

The water makes it less likely for waste to stick to the dry surface and accumulate, and also reduces odour. Splashing is more of an unfortunate side-effect of that design choice.
I've even been in toilets here where I had to take measures not to have my genitals end up dipping in it.
That's a bit too high, however.
But you have less chance of skid marks with the American type, hence they don't need a brush next to the toilet. If you'd ever find yourself brushing at the house of a date you've been invited to, you'll quickly prefer the American ones.
My favourite experiences have been in Germany and China, where typically most of the bowl is comprised of a dry "receptacle" which is then flushed with water into a smaller pipe opening.
