TL;DR Stop trying to tank in DPS gear and using your DPS stance and this should never be a problem for you.
Actually, taking in full tanking gear is exactly the opposite of what you want to do if you are losing agro. Your agro is based on your damage values so extra strength naturally makes you better at generating hate.
