Peter North! Sounds like the perfect pornstar name! It's actually one of my favorites from over the years. Besides, I sure as hell know my meat goes north whenever I'm jerking off to my favorite whores in porn. When I look back on some of my favorite scenes from the '90s, I think of this guy. You may not know about Peter North unless you've been beating your meat for that long, so today I'm introducing you fuckers to a goddamn legend.
Now, you've probably seen some pornstars with some major rod ropes, but this guy is practically the godfather of goon goo. You'd swear the dude had a goddamn firehose between his legs. But it wasn't just all about the phallus fireworks this guy shot off. Peter had stamina; the dude could pound for hours, switch positions like a gymnast on Viagra, and he would redecorate the whole fucking set.
Chicks he worked with actually begged for the facial, not because the director said so, but because they knew they were about to get painted by the fucking Van Gogh of splooge. He may not be a big-time performer today, but back then, this motherfucker was nailing naughty nines and tens from the vintage era. It'd be a shame if you wankers went on with your day without a history lesson about Peter North, so here's his story!
Canada to California
Peter North is originally from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, and was born on May 11, 1957, as Alden Joseph Brown. In a TTBoy interview (another legend in the biz), Peter described his early life as a "Good childhood," and grew up outside of the city in a neighborhood where everyone knew about everybody. As a kid, he grew up athletic, played hockey as every Canadian should, and played baseball.
When Peter turned 17, he became a total gearhead and modified a 1972 Barracuda 340, which he loved doing burnouts in. But what's more badass than a sweet ride? We all know it's nailing hot chicks, and Peter started paying more attention to them after 18. Even though his small-town life wasn't bad, he wanted to get the fuck out of Canada to see the world. So, in January 1982, he took his first plane ride to California seeking good times.
Matt Ramsey? Is it true?
Peter had never even seen a palm tree before, and porn wasn't even on the radar at this point. Peter just wanted a fresh start, which led him into sales at a health club, and eventually, he became a manager. A few years later, he had some bodybuilder friends who knew about a photographer who was in touch with one of porn's best agents of all time, Jim South.
Jim South was like the Mark Spiegler of the old porno days, and Peter was curious about getting into the industry for more cash and a chance to fuck LA's finest, freakiest chicks. That led to Peter visiting Jim's office in 1984. He took some photos, and it wasn't long before he was booking his first shoot. By the way, if it sounds like there are holes in this story, there are — and I'm getting there.
Every time Peter tells this story, I can’t help but wonder why the hell a gym manager would be so curious about getting into porn — beyond the pumped-up testosterone and the chance to fuck dimes. There has to be more to why hearing about a porn agent connected to a bunch of baddies was such a big deal, right? There is, and that’s because the scene I was talking about wasn’t actually Peter’s first.
He may tell it that way to his friends, like TTBoy, and to his audience, but my gay fans will never let me forget Matt Ramsey. Yes, for all you dick-lovers out there, Peter North was in fact once the gay pornstar Matt Ramsey. Now, for you fuckers who don’t play for both teams, this is probably a big fucking shock. Peter North — the slut super soaker — was once a gay pornstar? Yeah, and he conveniently forgets to mention that part.
I don’t get the big deal — sure, he had his hole rearranged a few times. I mean, I’d never do it, but plenty of male porn pros started off servicing solids for quick cash. Anyway, back to the gym story. My hot take: Peter was determined to get into Jim South’s office because he was ready to switch to straight porn, and Jim was the perfect guy to point his penis straight at the hottest thots of the time.
Peter's porn life
Now, let’s get back to that first straight scene. I guess being around dicks for so long had this horny bastard pussy-deprived. One of the first things everybody noticed was his stamina, and the second was that he could redecorate a set with his rod ropes like he was fucking Spider-Man. The whole crew was flabbergasted — along with his drenched co-stars.
Peter handled the scene like he’d been dicking down dimes for years, thinking it was completely normal to shoot off cock-cannon shots. But nah, this wasn’t normal, and years later, we still know him for that one reason. Matt Ramsey was long gone, and from that point on, he was Peter fucking North!
Peter's career officially began in 1984. Over the next couple of decades, he appeared in thousands of scenes, often knocking out multiple in a day — before dick pills were even the norm. Most masturbators would say Peter’s peak was in the late '80s and early '90s, but in 1997, he started his own production company. He traveled to Europe, Hawaii, the Dominican Republic, and, of course, fucked plenty of ladies in LA.
Peter was always reliable — except when it came to making a goddamn set call time. But when it came to performing, this dude could pump and dump as if his life depended on it, and to this day, he’s considered one of the best to ever fuck sluts on camera. He never did drugs — except that one time he smoked weed and had a bad shoot — but he learned quickly that a clear head was better for fucking properly.
On set (when he finally fucking arrived), he was chill, had no ego, had no problem sharing pussy, and always welcomed new talent. He stayed grounded and appreciated his fans. TTBoy once asked him on his podcast about his favorite directors and talent, and Peter responded: "John Leslie, Henri Pachard, Alex de Renzie, Paul Thomas, and Michael Carpenter."
And regarding the ladies, Peter said he loved fucking Candy Evans, Ginger Lynn, Jenna Jameson, and Christy Canyon. In 2018, Peter stepped away from performing and directing — but don’t worry, dick-strokers, you can still find all of his classics today. Hell, maybe your mom or pops has a hidden DVD or VHS stash back home you could raid.

What's Peter North up to these days?
Peter’s living a hell of a lot more privately since he retired. The TTBoy interview I listened to helped fill in some of the blanks. Apparently, he’s still living in Orange County, as he did in his porno glory days — one of the reasons this motherfucker would show up late to the set most of the time. That LA traffic’s a bitch! He’s kind of back to where he started in Canada, but his life’s had a serious fucking upgrade.
He’s still obsessed with fitness and sports (specifically boxing and MMA), and he’s upgraded his car collection from souped-up Barracudas to a Ferrari. Even though he was once one of the greatest splooge shooters in porn, Peter chooses to remain humble today. Me? I could never — fuck that shit! In this biz, we get to do shit that even billionaires dream of, and that gives us permanent bragging rights!
