You certainly can but don't blame me about the insufficiencies of your language!
Besides, according the the Oxford dictionary
"1.1 guys People of either sex.
‘you guys want some coffee?’"

Firstly, it's not "my" language by any stretch. And secondly, ask a straight guy how many guys he's slept with. You'll find out pretty quick "guy" primes/is male.

"How many guys have you slept with?" = specific guys = implied male "You guys" = non-specific = implied ungendered (e.g. "everyone") The latter is contested because of the implied maleness, so often avoided. NB "How many guys have you burnt?" usually refers to Bonfire Night

Oh — hahahah!
FWIW: there are some pretty good alternatives out there except for the burning Guys thing.

"How many Fawkes have you burned?" certainly sounds more gender neutral! *hides*
