What would be a gendered male death/stereotype that comes up in ASOIAF?

“How would you like to die, Tyrion son of Tywin?“
"In my own bed, with a belly full of wine and a maiden’s mouth around my cock, at the age of eighty,” he replied.

That’s not a bad candidate for a specifically male-gendered death, although one could argue that given the way that warfare is gendered in Westeros, most deaths in battle would count. Although it’s interesting how few of the main characters actually die in battle in ASOIAF…
