Womens touring saddle?

Per Pete:
but there's more to consider than just where
the sit bones go. If the position is upright at all, even a road bike with a
higher bar position, and the rider isn't going to be riding very hard all
the time, there is just going to be too much weight on a narrow racing
saddle to be comfortable, even if it's wide enough for the sit bones.

Excellent point. Something to add to my little repertoire.

Try the Selle Italia Lady's Trans Am or the Specialized Alias. Both are
good. Also the Avocet A40 women's racing saddle (comfortable, but it's a
bit less rugged)

A friend is looking for a womans saddle suitable for long distance
touring. She complains that most saddles she has used have "hurt" - you
can guess where.

Suggestions?
