JMPHO as a "female type" typically the harder someone tries to MAKE me like or do something, the more I am going to dig my heels in and resist. It is in most girls' I know natures to look at, stew over, ruminate if you will something of this nature.
I sure wish she were closer. Just had a "Girls Night Out" with our local "A Girl and A Gun" chapter and had a ball teaching new shooters. One had never even touched a gun before, when we were giving the safety briefing she had to ask what the muzzle was. I take so much of my little bit of knowledge for granted! (Thanks to Dad and MAR for all their patience in teaching me!) These ladies huge smiles when starting on the .22 and moving up from there to 9mm, 38 and .380 was awesome - they were great shots too!
Sorry for the digression - I love sharing with others my hobby that so many of my female friends just "don't get".

Re: Introducing my wife to shooting
If you let us know your area, there are several ladies groups that meet occasionally that may be able to introduce her to an assortment of options in a fun "girls night out" type environment.
ETA - Sometimes is is easier for ladies to learn from someone that is NOT her hubby.... less stressful.
