Therefore, what you are saying is that a "man" gave this name to the
application of using a wire, that is "confused" by the presence of the
"woman" who is attempting to change or modify the path of which he
should travel??????   Am I getting that correctly???   Yes, it is
definitely Friday.

As it's Friday, let's look at what haywire means according to the
Shorter Oxford Dictionary: haywire, noun & adjective.

E20.
[from HAY noun1 + WIRE noun.]

A. noun. Wire for binding bales of hay, straw, etc. E20.
B. adjective.
  1. Poorly or roughly contrived (with ref. to the practice of using
wire for baling hay to effect makeshift repairs). E20.
  Quote from the Listener: A haywire, unpredictable, one-man business.
  2. Of a person: in an emotional state, distracted, crazy. Of
circumstances: tangled, in disorder, confused. colloq. (orig. US). M20.
go haywire go wrong, become confused or crazy. Quotes from J. O'Hara: A
married man..and absolutely haywire on the
subject of another woman.   E. C. R. Lorac: The time element's all
haywire.
