Given that it sounds like you want ones on the wide-ish side of average and a cut-out, you definitely want to be including women's saddles in your search space. Basically, from what I can tell, the development of most modern women's saddles went like this:
1. companies started making cut-out/channeled saddles marketed at men with numbness issues
2. women started buying them in droves but did sometimes complain they were too narrow, due to their slightly-wider average sitbone width
3. women's saddles (i.e. slightly wider ones) started having cutouts/channels too
So basically, if that one doesn't work, absolutely look on both sets of shelves for the next one to try.
