#8 Marquis De Sade
Marquis de Sade was a French aristocrat who despite his wealth and social standing veered toward the seedier side of life. He loved writing erotic novels with all sorts of perversions mentioned. This was at at time when sex was definitely taboo. He loved torturing slaves and maids and was so persuasive he even got his unwitting wife involved. He is the first person in history being documented as enjoying beating and torturing people for sexual pleasure and so the genre Sado (named after Sade) and Masochism was born. Today S & M is a well known practice.
