With sultry good looks reminiscent of Elvis Presley, and an endowment the equal of his predecessors Al Parker, Stryker epitomized the "gay-for-pay" mentality.
He was exclusively the insertor in all his sex scenes, performing the active role
in anal sex and the passive role in oral sex. (glbtq.com)

Jeff Stryker (born Charles Casper Peyton on August 21, 1962, in Carmi, Illinois, U.S.) is an American porn star who has starred in bisexual, gay, and straight adult films. He currently lives in California.
Jeff Stryker is primarily known as a performer in gay pornography films, although Jamie Loves Jeff was one of the biggest selling heterosexual adult movies of all time for its producer, Vivid Entertainment. He describes himself (in a somewhat joking fashion) as sexually "universal". He has also said ""I don’t define myself as anything."
He also tried his hand at other acting, starring in a 1989 Italian-produced horror movie called After Death, (Revenge of the Zombies) in which he was credited as Chuck Peyton and was seen in other movies such as Can I Be Your Bratwurst Please?, and Dirty Love.
The “Jeff Stryker Cock and Balls,” a dildo fashioned from a cast of his penis is widely sold in sex stores. The dildo was academically analyzed in a paper presented at the 1995 Bowling Green State University Conference in Cultural Studies: Lesbian Pornography and Transformation: Foucault, Bourdieu, and de Certeau Make Sense of the Jeff Stryker Dildo, by Mary T. Conway, then a graduate student at Temple University. The sex toy is notable not only for being popular, but also as Stryker and the manufacturer of the item litigated for the rights to its likeness as part of Stryker's "intellectual property". (The case eventually reached a mutual acceptable resolution.). In a 1999 salon.com article written by Jeff Stryker, a New York journalist and the porn actor's namesake, the dildo is even described as an object of higher culture. It was mentioned in Allan Gurganus' 1997 novel Plays Well with Others, where the novel's narrator cleans up a closet filled with dildos, the premium find being "a Jeff Stryker, a monster, but somehow Roman in its genial fluted civic beauty."
Stryker has released a compact disc (Wild Buck) of country music that he performed, and in his pornographic video, Bigger Than Life, he performed a rock song of the same name.
A licensed line of Jeff Stryker products is available: calendars, playing cards, T-shirts, greeting cards, Stryker Lube and the Jeff Stryker Action Figure.
Stryker toured in a 1998–99 stage show called Jeff Stryker Does Hard Time which was an erotic comedy set in a prison. The show ended with a finale in which Stryker danced completely naked. The stage production was later spoofed in an episode of the US incarnation of "Queer as Folk", in the form of a stage production known as "Twelve Horny Jurors".
Stryker appeared in "A Sophisticated Evening with Jeff Stryker" in Los Angeles, Summer 2006, and also in Provincetown, Massachusetts, Summer 2007. The show was produced by comedy writer Bruce Vilanch. In that show, Stryker performed a comic monologue about his life and adventures in adult films, conducted a "porn acting demo" comedy skit with an audience member, and danced in a nude finale where he greeted the audience.
Reaction from other celebrities
Filmmaker and author John Waters called Jeff Stryker “the Cary Grant of porno.”
American comedienne Margaret Cho's routines involve her love for his films. In her show, Assassin, she discusses in detail the many places one can use the dildo. Stryker had given Cho his commercially-produced action figure.
In her autobiography, Traci Lords describes him as “handsome but rather dumb looking” after he gave her scornful looks backstage during a Century City Civic Center Thierry Mugler Fashion show (en.wikipedia.org)
