The geometry chart on the "womens" motolite page is the same as on the "mans" motolite page, in fact the 2007 website doesn't list a "women's motolite". The only potential difference would be in tubing - my XS has a narrower diameter down tube than the bigger frames, all the other tubing is the same.
I don't think there is a problem with standover measurement on my XS but I can check its accuracy if you like. I have quite a bit of standover on my XS - I have a 30" inseam and have 130mm forks on it so I think you'll be ok on that score, the longer your forks and bigger your tyres are the less standover you will have. The MotoLite has a kink in the top tube to help clearance that the racer x does not have.
Titus have always been really helpful when I've had to ask them anything.

I ride a men's specialized and actually a men's giant tcr roadbike as well. Do you have a mountain bike now? The major limiters are your top tube length and the stand over height. If you will be able to stand over the bike easily with plenty of room to spare (this is not usually a problem with full suspension bikes) and your top tube is not too long - you will be able to make the bike fit.
Is there anywhere near you that you can go ride the bike at a store to see how it feels? Otherwise, just take a look at the bike you have now and measure the top tube length and standover height that should give you a good idea
