The term "Gen" probably arose from the term "general" as a rating used to indicate that a fan work was suitable for all audiences. It has evolved to refer to Fanfiction that doesn't focus on romantic and/or sexual relationships.
Defining exactly what is and isn't "Gen" however, can be difficult as both relationships and sex occur in Canon. To what extent they can occur in a Gen fic can be contentious. Wincest is usually totally disallowed, although other slash pairings may be permissible if not the focus of a fic.
