The invention claimed is: 1. A seat, characterized in that the seat is situated at a height as to allow the user to rest the user's feet on the floor or on a footrest and is constituted by a body that at the upper end thereof, on the surface of use, is differentiated into a rear seat portion for the user's buttocks, a lower middle portion and a front portion higher than the middle portion which, when inserted between the user's thighs, allows the user to sit astride it and the user's thighs to lean on it, said higher front portion being differentiated, lengthwise down the center, into two parallel portions that, being mirror images, are spaced apart to define therebetween a frontal open space which constitutes a deep notch that extends across the full thickness of said seat body and is located in correspondence with the user's genital area, allowing the user's genitals to be accommodated in said notch; said front portion having a width which is adapted to force a separation of the users legs and induce the extension of the user's adductors to create a gripping effect on the seat body, the seat body further having a generally horizontal flat lower surface and a bulged upper surface of varying curvature that defines the surfaces of each of the front and rear portions which are continuous and extend from one to the other without a break, the rear portion forming a gently concave surface that, transversely arcuate, tends to rise in the center at the curvilinear free edge thereof to form an rear retaining region of the user's body, at the same time as, in opposition to said region, it continues, in warped form, in the front portion which is formed by two coplanar, parallel rectilinear stretches of greater height, the side surface of which is convexly curved and sloping downwardly towards the outside, which stretches, being mirror images, configure therebetween a separation space across the thickness of the thick seat body. 2. The seat according to claim 1, characterized in that the seat body is of compound plan, wherein said notch is of a semi-elliptical shape, said rear seat has a bulbous curved shape and said two parallel portions have a semi-oval shape. 3. The seat according to claim 1, characterized in that the seat body is installed on a support structure standing on the floor or the like that is of adjustable height to adjust it so that the user, supporting the user's feet on the floor or on a footrest, maintains the user's thighs at an angle of about 135째 with the user's trunk. 4. The seat according to claim 3, characterized in that the seat body is attached to the support structure in such a way as to allow it to rock backwards and forwards. 5. The seat according to claim 1, wherein the deep notch has a width adapted to fully accommodate male genitals. 6. The seat according to claim 1, wherein the body comprises, in plan view, a compound profile including generally trapezoidal front and middle portions, and a semi-elliptic rear portion.
