In the year 1400 an English Woman, living in Kings Lynne, named Margery Kempe had Her autobiography (the first ever published in England), "The Book of Margery Kempe" published.
In it She is quoted as saying, " I would rather have eaten the ooze and muck in the gutter than to consent to intercourse, except out of obedience ", with Her Husband, William.
She also went on to state, " We had displeased God by Our inordinate love and the great delight that each of Us had in using each others bodies. We must be punished! We must be punished for our lust and My Husband said "Yes, it was good to do so - but not yet.'
Here was a Woman who took control of Her Life and Body, and stood up for Her 'right' to liberate Herself from the tyranny of sexual intercourse upon demand.
No doubt I will be excluded from the "Testosterone Owners and Users Club" for the rest of My life for answering this question.

The first women's rights WHAT. Womens rights are a concept, not something that can be 'held', like a conference, march, rally or convention.
Re-phrase your question.

haha Seneca Falls, but GET THIS:
It is because Seneca Falls has some sort of significance to the Iroquios Indian tribe.
Why would feminists have anything to do with the Iroquois you ask? BECAUSE THEY THINK THE IROQUOIS HAD A MATRIARCHAL SOCIETY.
Equal rights? GIVE ME A BREAK.
