Garth's theory when items like this (the bras) show up is that a guy has brought them. No, said guy hasn't decided to give up cross dressing. Garth's theory is that there has been a break-up. Some woman spent enough nights and mornings with some guy that she had left a few of her under-things at his place. And then he decided - or she decided - he was done. No more contact, a clean break. What to do with the under-things? Bring them to the Free Bench, of course.
Garth always suggests these theories with sadness, as if he knew the people and liked them as a couple and is sad they couldn't make a go of it. I like this about Garth, though I rib him about it, too. I am more cynical about relationships, or just less romantic. Or maybe practical. Those bras represent a bit of an investment - probably 35 or 40 bucks apiece easily. Who'd casually leave something like that at some guy's place to be cast off onto our Bench?
But I haven't found another theory that I like especially. Garth's probably right. It's all about relationships, isn't it?
