My wife was *easily* trained not to fear the black text screen, and
I put startx in her .bashrc (with a little wrapper so that it would
only run from the console, not an xterm window).
Certainly your GF can be similarly trained.

For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that

are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
