To me a boy is a young male before adolescence and guy would be said for someone older. I presume everyone here is in adolescence or past it. Although saying boy would be correct thats just how i (and people i know) would say it. Also if it was teams of males Vs females people usually say "boys Vs girls", or where i live they do.

Like i said you can say boy but its just more common to hear people say guy.

I suppose guy is more informal whereas boy would be more formal but in common speech you would hear people say guy.

I see, Jme, thanks for your explanation.

One more thing: could you make sure you write the personal pronoun I in capitals. Thanks!
