I believe the correct answer to your question is "D. William Lloyd Garrison." According to the page at https://historyengine.richmond.edu/episodes/view/5564,
The female delegates [to the World Anti-Slavery Convention] believed they were to be seated, but upon their arrival they were turned away and forced to the gallery . . . few men at the time were comfortable with female anti-slavery advocates publicly speaking out and serving as leaders in the fight for abolition.
There were exceptions, including William Lloyd Garrison . . . . Garrison, who was present at the convention, and a few other male delegates protested the treatment of the females, and sat in the gallery alongside their female counterparts. Though the women attempted to “reason with them on the subject” and urge them to remain in their seats, they found “[the men] were fixed” upon joining them.
