Question

can I use the word "guy" with the woman or it use for only the man and is it polite word?..

Answer

Use "guy" when speaking about a man in a casual setting.
If in a formal setting, at work etc., use "man".

Use "guys" when addressing your friends (male or female).

================================================

here is the dictionary definition:

a man
He's a great guy.
Do you mean the guy with the blonde hair and glasses?

(especially American and Australian) In the plural form, guys can be used to
address a group of people whether they are male or female.
Are you guys coming to lunch?
