You can define your own genres in File\>Options\>Genre and set the option to only display these.  
As for all other lists that may benefit from user-defined values, the topic has been addressed many times, e.g. here:

> [@Artist, Composer and Year dropdown list](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/artist-composer-and-year-dropdown-list/19359):
>
> The genre section allows to add custom genres. Manually added genre can be selected through a dropdown list. Can the same be achieved in case of artist, composer and year field?

Please add your comments about pre-defined values there.
