no, and i don't see much value in doing so. it's obviously true that there are certain genres i gravitate toward (and others which tend to repel me) in my listening habits, but as a general matter, i think confining one's consumption to genre is limiting and something that should be avoided. much better to just listen broadly, attentively, to find what works for you and what doesn't, and try not to focus overmuch on categorization.
i do think there are plenty of interesting depths to be plumbed in considering genre, how it's constructed, applied/misapplied, how it influences how we might compare or receive ostensibly similar pieces of music, etc.
but it's sunday and i'm lazy

There are so many sub-genres of sub-genres now I just listen to what I like.

I like me some classical music but I could never get into straight up opera.

In all seriousness without delving into too many sub-genres, I essentially listen to:
Metal (pretty much every sub genre though some more than others for sure)
Electronic (mostly techno, psytrance, synthwave, breakcore. For the most part I can’t stand anything that has vocals in electronic unless it goes for the more extreme side of things like Igorrr)
Folk (European and Americana mostly)
Classical symphonic music
Classic rock
Most rock from the 80’s and 90’s
I suppose that’s about it.
