In the song "My Guy" by Mary Wells, does she mean "My man" or "My partner of unspecified gender"?

I say she means "My man", but some argumentative troll refused to say which was the correct meaning in a comment thread yesterday so I'm posting it as a question now. CIVILISED AND LOGICAL ANSWERS ONLY, PLEASE. Any trollish answers will be deleted and the posters blocked.

The following lyrics would suggest that she definitely meant a man:

My opinion is he's the cream of the crop
As a matter of taste to be exact
He's my ideal as a matter of fact [/quote]
