Genre is the term used to describe a loose set of criteria for categorization of literature and speech, as well as many other forms of art or culture. Genres are formed by conventions that change over time as new genres are invented and the use of older ones is discontinued. Often, works fit into multiple genres by way of borrowing and recombining these conventions. While the scope of the word "genre" is commonly confined to art and culture, it also defines individuals' interactions with and within their environments. These interactions and environments must be recurring in order to be recognized as genre. Correspondingly, a Sub-genre is a set of loose criteria, based within the main genre that further defines the storyline. SexSkits utilizes a series of various Genres and Sub-genres to define and hence, develop the script for the sexual role play. Some of the current genres and sub-genres are listed below:
