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.

"My guy" certainly meant "my man"/"my boyfriend" when it was written.

To try to force an historical event to conform to today's...notions is anachronistic.

The song is just a sweet song about how much a gal loves her guy. Sorry, others, it's about a male-female relationship in a traditional sense.
