By all accounts, Henry the Eighth was a big fat lecher that was shooting blanks and blaming his wives. He was a pig.  I took a class on medieval history that I can't remember and pretty much the bullet point is that as some kind of misguided social experiment, the Europeans gave up bathing for 1200 years to see what would happen  and Bubonic Plague was the outcome. The Plague was a big hitter for human evolution.
