What three times? I only remember the sleazy guy in "Give a Little, Take a Little" and that was borderline whether you could call it even command rape (though she did feel lousy enough it didn't make a lot of difference afterward). She *could* have balked, but it would have blown the investigation. Still, she was tough enough to kick his ass if she'd needed to do it. She certainly was tough enough to blow him away at the end. She just chose to go through with sleeping with him and stay within her role. It was an ugly choice, but it was one she made.
Gina didn't do anything dumber or sleazier than either Crockett or Tubbs did. I mean, Tubbs freakin' slept with the daughter of the guy who had his brother blown away *and* fathered a child with her less than a third of the way through season one. And Switek shot a bunch of guys in the last episode to get out of a gambling debt and Internal Affairs investigation. As for Crockett, well...even without the Sonny Burnett, Hitman storyline, he was all over the place most of the time.
Personally, I liked that Gina got to have her own storylines where she had difficult cases and moral dilemmas. And she and Trudy stood up for each other as much as Crockett and Tubbs did.
