For me its RTS,  MMORPG's and Simulations. Tried getting into them but they weren't any fun for me. And to a lesser extent sports games, apart from a little bit of FIFA.
 
So what genres do you tend to avoid or not play?

Sports. I'm not a big fan of FPS games either, but there's a couple I don't mind.

I don't care much for FPS games. Team sports games I hate, but the Pro Skater games were fun.. I haven't played any sims other than The Sims and an old flight simulator. I like the flight simulator -- not so much The Sims. I avoid MMORPGs because of money and time, but I don't flat out hate them. I don't play RTS games because I'm not a big computer gamer, but I do like them.

Sport games: Since I can do them in real life.
Racing games: Unable to play them right (Really like kart racing games).
MMOs: due to monthly payments 
Simulators: Wait thats not game genre!

I generally play everything, but tend to avoid JRPG's, sports and sims. Oh, and all those hidden object games too.

Modern War shooters.
 
Tried a few, but they all offer the same crappy story and unbalanced multiplayer, I just don't like it.

Sports games for me. 
But that's really just because sports seems so boring to me.

MMO's and Kart-Racers 'cept ModNation which I fell in love with, but mostly because of the great editors in it.
I'm not into RTS anymore as well, but I'll play an old classic every now and again.

Sports.
I like RTSgames but I suck terribly at them. All I ever do is turtle. Although I did win a couple of matches in the SC2 beta :3 
Also, FPS games are rad. I win all the time. *fistpump*

Flight simulators, most sports games and the very highly realistic shooters out there.

JRPG's, I've never been a big fan of how they progress (both in story and in exp) or their classic turned based battle system is  just  slow and unaccessible. 
I haven't completed one since FFX, but the last one I tried - Lost Odyssey, I couldn't get past the first hour I was so bored.

MMO's, I just don't see the point of anything being an MMO, it usually just cheapens the experience for me with a game having to see a bunch of assholes running around I don't want in my game. The only one I thought was decent was City of Heroes/Villains but that's mostly due to the cool creation tools. The game itself did not do anything for me in the end after I played through my free month. I much prefer something like Borderlands with MMO-ish gameplay at times, but without a bunch of random people and a stupid monthly fee.

MMORPG's and RTS's the first i'm not bothered about at all but the second I imagine I would quite like to get in to but as a console gamer the door is shut really - unless anyone can think of a good one. I also have never been bothered about Car games really.  
   I also don't play JPRG's which I think is strange considering I like games like Mass Effect and Fallout (I know they are a lot different but its in the same area). I guess maybe I find the stories in JPRG's over melodramatic and sentimental and I need to have some emotions triggered by a RPG and if the cultural difference's are too great then it is hard for this to happen - but maybe i'm being too closed minded. 
 Oh.. and motion control games leave me pretty cold.

RTS, realistic sports games (aside from tennis and golf, which I enjoy), 'gritty and real' FPS games, and... I think that's about it.
 
RTS games simply don't engage me as I like to relax and take my time when playing games, I don't find realism in gaming that interesting, and 'gritty' FPS games seem to rely on testosterone.

MMOs and Sports games mainly. Vehicular sports are an exception though, as I quite enjoy all kinds of driving games.
 
I was gonna say Space sims as well, but to be honest, I've never really sat down and played one. Who knows, I might enjoy it?

I think I have a pretty wide appreciation of different game genres. Hell I even like racing/sports. 
 
However... I can't play horror games.

There aren't really any genres I will completely avoid. I'm not a huge fan of both fighting games and horror games, but I'll happily give them a go.

JRPGs - don't care for the style or gameplay of them
MMOs - love to play them, but afraid for my social life
Rhythm - just never really interested me at all

Mostly sports, shooters, MMO, dancing, fitness and fighting games. There have been exceptions though to few of the genres that I usually avoid. Never played a JRPG.
 
I like to stick with adventure, racing, platformer, puzzle, strategy and some RPGs and simulation.
