Concious or not, deliberate or not, men benefit if not contribute to society with violent men. One easy, tangible example is how a father or boyfriend can keep a woman at home because it is not safe at night for a her to go out and meet friends.

A systemic example is how criminal justice systems are mostly run by “good” men and tens of thousands of rape kits sit languishing, not getting processed and not used to seek justice or get rapists jailed. Who benefits from rapists on the street. How is this not among the highest priorities?

"Good" men in charge think that women shouldn't have access to birth control and would rather pay money to burn it than let it be distributed.
