I get a kick out of the man-in-dryer version, specifically as a reversal of the patriarchal woman-in-fridge. M/M or F/F versions I've seen only occasionally, and I think most of those were crazy-lesbian stories (which I do not write).
I have 8 sex/gender roles in one desert, plus some others elsewhere. And those 8 in the Whispering Sands actually have some of their own tropes, like: you do not molest a Tazha nurturer, or a Tazha provider will hunt you down and drag you back for the nurturers to dismember at their leisure. Bandit men may not fear a clean death in combat, but that deterrent makes assault on nurturers pretty rare.
