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.

Who in the sweet blue fuck is going to argue on the other side of that? Guy has been used to mean man ever since Guy Fawkes was convicted of trying to improve the London landscape.

Update: Sorry, my phone doesn't take dictation so good.

@LordShadowfire Who in the sweet blue fuck is going to hurt you on the other side of that?

What do you mean?

@Crazychick It means I'm a dumb shit and didn't check that my phone wrote down what I was trying to dictate. Sorry.

@LordShadowfire What's up with your phone?

@Crazychick I don't know. I have fat fingers, so I rely on voice to text, and I don't always proofread before I hit "Post comment".

@LordShadowfire Proofreading is a good idea.
