>>>  On the other, is the group who (equally rightfully) insist that it is

There's also a group debating the meaning of "lady"; nevertheless...

YES!  This sums it up perfectly.  As the poster of the original question

It seems painfully obvious to any student of logic that the
response to "Guys is to <??> as Men is to Women" is "Woguys."
