No, those trying, marginalizing experiences you've been through aren't misogynistic. They are hurtful, and it's disappointing not to be heard, but they are not analogous to the misogyny that exists the the culture as a whole. Your experience of positive attitudes towards vaginas notwithstanding, the world at large sees women's bodies, and in particular their genitalia as something to be controlled and as something to be beautified because they are never good enough or acceptable on their own terms. The language you use to talk about your personal feelings has it's roots in the historic fear and distrust of women's bodies.

As for your thanks, please. You don't need your "fear" affirmed by me, you already imagine yourself as the victim of a vast "vulvas are beautiful what is wrong with you" conspiracy. Don't lay your issues with your body on other women. Please just talk to a professional.

Don't lay your issues with your body on other women.

I'm...not? I never asked another woman to fix me. I've never said "what the hell is wrong with you, let me educate you on your wrong opinon about vaginas!" I just disagree. Is there really that big an issue with simple disagreement? I could say "I don't think redheads are attractive" and there'd be no issue with it, right? (I think redheads are awesome though tbh.) Well, I don't think vulvas are attractive. I'm not attracted to them because I can't stand the sight of them. I've tried to. I want to be okay with them. My body refuses it. It's honestly that simple.

I'm not sure where you are in the world that you have to deal with something that blatantly demeaning regarding the aesthetics of vaginas in particular, but I'm sorry you do. I'm glad I'm don't see that. My dislike of them came out of seemingly nowhere. I'd like to know where, and why, and I'd like to talk to someone about it. I just chose to make a secret before taking the next step.
