Brief Answer:
There won't be any risk if no saliva contacted

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM

I have gone through your query. There won't be any risk if no saliva contacted while kissing. Even if saliva contacted on shaft there is no risk as only mucous membrane (glans) there will be risk. So no need to worry.

Let me know if anything not clear.
i am happy to help you.
Thanks.
