Based sub-categories the game already has:
TV Channels
Movie Genres
There already is a system for movie genre preference, so maybe they can add 'Movies' as a TV Channel like/dislike option
Temperature/Seasons/Weather Types
This also has it's own preference system from Seasons, but the social wheel is already so cluttered it could be cleaned up by attaching this to likes/dislikes.
Food
Dine Out recognizes categories for dishes like Italian/Seafood/Vegetarian/Experimental
Fashion
I'm surprised this isn't in, but maybe it will come when an 'attraction' pack comes out.
Commercial Venue Type
This might dictate what kind of venues a sim likes to frequent, like Libraries/Karaoke Bars/Art Centers/Spas
I really like the idea of liked/disliked commercial venue types! I'm always dismayed when I see Eliza or Bob Pancakes in nightclubs, since it doesn't make sense for me that it would be their scene. It would make more sense for me to see them frequently at restaurants, arguing in the fancy booth. Traits influence which lots you can find NPCs at, but this would give much more control and personality to sims, especially when it comes to dislikes, imo. I'd LOVE to see sims miserable in places they don't feel like they fit in with, or find the music too loud, or feel that libraries are creepy etc. It would also allow sims to more easily meet other sims with common interests.
