[Philosophy in the Bedroom] Sex to the Social Revolution

If you are familiar with the Marquis de Sade, the controversial writer and figure of the early 1700's forward, whose very acts and deviancy coined the term "Sadism," or sexual pleasure derived from the pain and humiliation of others, then it doesn't make you an exception to the zenith of depravity that stemmed from his mind.

The 1795 [Philosophy in the Boudoir] was once counted out and banned as pure obscenity but is now hailed by those who are quite comfortable and close to their own sexual compulsion as more of a social revolution. In the book, de Sade's philosophy is entangled in libertinism, the lifestyle, which applied effectively and without a second-consideration, would save the whole of France from the ruling Monarchy.

Along with an embrace of the libertine lifestyle, too, atheism  must be embraced and excluded anything else representing the moral fabric spun by any overbearing society's tyrannical reign. Within this social defiance, de Sade's own life, the trials and commitments he faced in dungeons can be seen. He states that if a crime is committed while in the course of seeking pleasure, then that crime shouldn't be punished, a more wishful thinking on his part, because had it been in effect, de Sade would never have been imprisoned for the various and numerous sexual and violent offenses which were committed in due course of his own sexual climates.

If anything can be taken from [Philosophy in the Bedroom] is the theory that any government, past ruling or currently presiding, were to have come into accounts of the text, the sex would be the least of their threats, rather the complete renouncing of religion and the monarchy, which in sum, would befall a government complacent and in place. de Sade is not the moral compass anyone or any individual needs to direct their own compulsions and urges, but for his work,  we can all see how a government that has lost its focus on the people becomes nerved when even a single individual publishes a manifesto against the foundation.
