Ok I'll resind my post and rephrase...
The Lexus RX is by far the least masculine LUXURY midsize crossover/SUV. Models to compare which are similar in size would be
BMW X5
Benz ML
Audi Q7
Acura MDX
Infiniti FX/EX or whatever "Q" they call it now
Range Rover HSE
Porsche Cayenne
These are all vehicles my wife has considered and I've tried very hard to push the RX but it's just weak in comparison. Should strictly be used for floral deliveries. I really hope the new RX hits the gym

If you define "masculine", in this case, as having more room inside and a better cargo-area behind the seats, then yes, the RX clearly wins. Otherwise, IMO, not only are they both excellent, well-made vehicles, but can be (and ARE) driven and enjoyed by both males and females alike.

It needs way more than that. I have driven both GS 300h and NX 300h and both of them feels very, very weak in every way. Thing is that RX probably will be another 200 kg more than both of them. GS gets to 100 km/h in about 9,5 sec which will make the RX do it way over 10 sec, probably close to 11. Thats not suitable for a luxury car in any way, just imagine to drive a car like that around the alpes or something like that, that poor engine would never go under 4000 rpm.
