Funk styles were the best. Hats, pimp suits, polyester “silk” shirts, bad ass glasses, platform shoes. Cincinnati was a funk epicenter, so maybe they were responsible. Groovy shit. Also it sired roller boogie.

Bootsy is a local legend here.
Hearts for Bootsy - and stars.
I forgot to mention blowouts too. The best afros were in funk.
It's fairly expansive, now. House was what happened when dance music went back underground after the (racist, homophobic) disco backlash of the late '70s. It started when DJs in the (mostly Black, mostly gay) Chicago club scene started mixing in more electronic elements and mechanical rhythms into what they played, and settling into a BPM range around the 120s (although it's kind of expanded since then, with most house these days falling between 110 and 140).
Some early house classics:
Of course, like any successful underground style, house proliferated and mutated over time, and now there are a bunch of different house sub-genres (acid, progressive, deep, ballroom, garage, tech, etc., etc.), as well as more mainstream music that bears a house influence:
Anyway. There's a ton of territory to explore, here, and if I have time later, I can certainly dive into some of the more popular and interesting sub-genres (acid house, in particular, really blew up in the UK and was part of the genesis of the rave movement).
I'm assuming you're joking, but just in case not, it's from radio stations advertising playing nothing but rock. That turned into buttrock which isn't an actual thing besides being a meme or parody. But it's a term that has been adopted by some to criticize 90's rock and Nu Metal. Some people take it further and include all rock.

Dang but what if...what if it was only about butts?

It's particularly fuzzy in this poll, because grunge and metal have their own categories. Like, is Pearl Jam buttrock? Sure, in a general sense. But for the purposes of this poll, they'd fall more under grunge, I have to imagine - they're one of the two biggest bands in that space. Is Tool buttrock? Again, sure, but they could easily be under the metal umbrella in this particular poll.
So, what's left for buttrock? Here, I'm thinking of the whole post-grunge, nu-metal "alternative" wave - Creed, Shinedown, Staind, Nickelback, that sort of thing. There's still some good stuff in there - I'll go to bat for Seven Mary Three, for example - but on the whole, it's...well, butt.
That said, that's just my personal take on it. It appears that, like all great philosophical questions, "What is buttrock?" is open to deeply individual interpretation.

TL;DR - house is awesome, don't vote for it yet.
I don’t listen to a lot of edm. I’m not even sure what the stuff that I like is called. Stuff like Modera and Darkside.
