LOS ANGELES, CA – Bachelor Nation’s Ashley Iaconetti appears in this Thursday’s episode of weekly sex-positive podcast, Sluts & Scholars. Hosted by sexologist Nicoletta and Simone, the 1-hour show discusses how to navigate sexuality in culture by having conversations that will make your sex smarter and smarts sexier. Episodes are available for download at iTunes and Spotify.

“In our culture, the concept of virginity is both put on a pedestal and shamed; it’s a lose-lose situation,” said Sluts & Scholars co-host sexologist Nicoletta Heidegger. “Ashley I. leads us in a smart conversation and helps to dispel some ‘Bachelor’ myths while bringing the podcast a fresh point of view from a slutty virgin.”

Ashley Iaconetti shared during the episode, “Just because I’m a virgin, doesn’t mean I can’t be sexy.”

In The Scarlet “V” with Bachelor Nation’s Ashley I,  co-hosts Nicoletta and Simone talk with the sexy and business-savvy Ashley I. about her unique experiences from Bachelor fame. Known as the “crying girl” or “the virgin” from Bachelor Nation, Iaconetti leads a thoughtful discussion about the concept of “virginity,” what really happens in the Fantasy Suite, Bachelor statistics, and life under the microscope of public opinion.
