I live in LA so maybe that skews things, but if I'm out at a bar, concert or a club I feel pretty small.

While that is true, this is also a factual observation.

Do you slouch a lot? 5'11" isn't short but you aren't really "tall" either.

5'11 is the chameleon height. Not too short, but a little. You're not short enough as to be made fun of, but definetly short enough to be invisible to the opposite sex

Idk but I can tell insecurity is a part of it because the topic title says "almost 5'11" instead of "is 5'10"

I mean, technically I said borderline but whatever mate.

I already admitted that I would prefer to be taller, so I'm aware of my insecurity. But it's more of a subconscious thing. I'm not actively thinking about it every waking minute.

I'm 5'10 and 3 quarters in reality, but I say 5'11 because it sounds leaps and bounds taller (imo).

This is actually true if you're really attractive or have something that makes you stand out. My 5'6 friend has girls flocking to him everywhere we go. Even ones that are taller. It's mind blowing.

You bring a good point.

an inch is 2.54 CM.

There's a huge difference between a 5'10 guy (177.8 CM) and a 5'11 guy (180.33 CM)

Where does this leave somebody who is, for example, 178.9 cm? 179 CM? They're much closer to 180CM than to a 177CM guy.

when can you call yourself 5'11 and not 5'10, even though you're not actually 5'11?

feet and inches is such a bad measure for height, I like CM more

To answer your question TC it's because most people are going to be either your height or taller. It's not short, you just won't be the tallest guy in the room or in a group

If you think the vast majority of men "have to make up for" being average height I got bad news for you.
