A height complex which causes the majority of 5'11" men (and some 5'10" men) to claim to be 6'0". Men with this complex will often say things such as "I'm basically 6 foot" or "I'm 6 foot with shoes on" when asked their height. It is also commonly used to finesse naive young woman into meeting up on dating sites, as 6'0" is seen as far more desirable than 5'11".
Cathy was disappointed after finding out that her tinder date, Steve had used the deception of the 5'11 complex to trick her into meeting up. "He must've measured his height with shoes on" she thought.

Get the 5/11 Indian mug.Let's set the record STR8!! 11-5 was originally a police code name for Heroine in particular, and narcotics in general. Back in the 1980's OG's from the Infamous East Oakland Turf known as Sobrante Park(SPG's) named their turf 11-5 because of all the dope dealing that was going on in that nieghborhood back in the days. Over ten years later, in the 90's a San Francisco rap group originally part of the rap group "Cold World Hustlers" started calling themselves 11/5. Know your history people!
