Hi,

I don't believe that there is facility for Custom fields within the tagging 
mechanism of iTunes.  If you wish to put items into multiple Genres, I'd put 
your secondary Genre into the Grouping field.  The combo box for Genre works in 
two ways, you can choose from the list of Genres provided or enter one 
yourself.  While on the Genre item, just enter whatever you wish to name it, it 
will now become one of the choices within the combo box.  I usually just enter 
the first few letters of whatever Genre in there anyway and iTunes finishes my 
typing for me.

HTH.

Later...
