it isn't naive at all. You may well find that no matter how many you try on, the Diva will be the most comfy for you. Spookily enough, I doubt you were the first woman to go into the shop and he probably had a bit of experience in selling BCD's to women. There is a reason why it is one of the most popular womens BCDs!
And contrary to what you may think from reading posts on YD, I know far more women who dive in the Diva than in a wing, backplate and harness.
