Genre

A field of interest and common characteristics



genre
How films are catagorised in movie rental places.

A grouping based on shared similar characteristics.

In theory genre exists for convenience, allowing people to identify broad groups without having to name specific titles from within the group.

In other words, you can decide on a film to rent without having to go through reading the back of each and every box.

Often however there are discrepancies with the categorisations, particularly as the boundaries between genres can be quite fluid. In practice this means genre categories can be less than helpful.

The term also applies to other media such as music, books, theatre and art.
Example:
Examples of film genres could include: Action, Comedy, Drama, Romance, Kids, Horror, Science Fiction.


genre
A way to trick people into thinking there's some order and reason to creative thought. Music and literature aren't a science.

When someone starts talking about which genres they like, be it of music or literature, they probably don't know what they're talking about. The same type of person will ask "What type of music/books do you like?"

The best answer to a question like that is to name the specific things that you like, and let them come up with a label for them.
Example:
Examples of "genres" include:

Literature: Fantasy, Romance

Music: Death metal, Country

Genre Nazi
One who zealously classifies music as being of a certain genre.
A genre nazi will argue against anyone who claims the music in question is a different genre than what the grammar nazi has said it to be.
The word "grammar nazi" stems from the slang term for someone who aggresively corrects people on their spelling, vocabulary and grammar - a "Grammar Nazi".
Example:
Typical genre nazi argument.

"Deadmau5 is a progressive house/trance artist, not trance/progressive house artist, you idiot!"

"Metallica are a thrash metal/speed metal band, not a speed metal/thrash metal band, you idiot!"

"Rihanna is a R&B/pop music singer, not a pop music/R&B singer, you idiot!"
