Advantages: I've been saying this from the get-go: even though Ben H. didn't win The Bachelorette, he wins at life. He can explain sex to elementary-school children without breaking a sweat, two-step without tripping over anything, and turn an Irish wake into a comedy show. The software salesman won't be in Denver for long; he'll be flying back to LA to shoot his season of The Bachelor in no time.
Disadvantages: There's a chance Ben H.'s age could give the producers pause. At 26, he'd be a great deal younger than the last Bachelor, Chris Soules (33), and penultimate Bachelor, Juan Pablo Galavis (31 at the time of his season). Then again, Bachelorette Emily Maynard was 26 during her season, so maybe it's time the show ditched its double standards.
