SPEAKERS: Benjamin Law & his mother Jenny Phang
You might think you have issues with talking to your parents about sex – but really, you probably have less than Benjamin Law and Jenny Phang do. For more than 20 issues of the Lifted Brow, this gutter-going mother-son duo have co-written their funny, frank and often heartfelt sex and relationships column.
Benjamin is a writer whose work has broached subjects of sex (Gaysia) and family (The Family Law) with candour and wit. His mother Jenny was born in Malaysia, and raised five children. In each edition of Law School – now anthologised as a book – they bring different cultural and generational perspectives to relationship problems ranging from financial BDSM to sharehouse nudity and Tinder addiction.
Join us at the Wheeler Centre for a live serving of Law School counsel. The pair will first tackle your own terrible, terrible problems (submit them online beforehand, or at the event). They’ll then discuss their relationship with each other, and share stories from the trenches of their unlikely (and potentially ruinous) advice column.
You kiss your mother with that mouth?
