Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Options A, C, and D are all strategies that individuals might use to deal with the stigma associated with having tattoos. They might condemn those who criticize tattoos (A), use socially acceptable reasons for getting tattoos (C), or demonstrate their commitment to a conventional lifestyle despite having tattoos (D). However, trying to convince friends and family to get tattoos as well (B) is not typically a strategy used to contend with personal deviance but rather an attempt to normalize tattooing within one's social circle.
