The national cancer society estimates that problems will start to occur in smokeless tobacco users after about 6 years. This will impact only 1 in 20 users, so the math turns out that if you kiss him non stop for about 120 years you may have a problem.

Cancer is caused by the tobacco being in constant with the gums, tongue and cheeks for months and years. Contact such as kissing or "other places" shouldn't harm you. No you won't get cancer like "second hand" smoke can give you. BUT, why in the world would want to kiss "chewing tobacco". It nasty and saturated with spit!! Pops

Yes, you can get cancer by coming into contact with the mouth of someone who has cancer, either from tobacco or other causes. Second hand smoke is a widely debated issue. While it isn't especially good for you, and it may cause cancer, it isn't really worse than "first hand" smoke.

Unless you plan to kiss him while the dip is in his mouth, I don't think you are at risk to develop cancer, because the tobacco isn't going into you. He, on the other hand, might get bloody gums, lose all of his teeth and have to live w/o a jawbone. I've seen pictures. It's nasty.

Well, I don't think so; in the case of 2nd. hand smokers, surely you mean Pasive Smoker, but this is different. And about getting Cancer in the mouth, it wouldn't be possible if a guy kisses you, so, don't you worry about this, Honey!!!

If you get cancer, it won't be caused by kissing a guy that dips.
If it causes you so much anxiety, you should explain that to him.
Maybe he would want to quit so he doesn't get cancer of the mouth, trachea, etc... and you two will have a happier, healthier relationship. Besides, Skoal stinks really bad!

You are worrying over nothing. If you get kissed by a guy who "chews", a few kiss's aren't going to hurt you. A person who "chews" for a long amount of time will get cancer. So you are safe.

No.
for oral cancer to develop, the stuff needs to be in contact with the gums over long period of time, cause abrasion in the same place and then slowly transform into cancer.
with second hand smoke, a fair bit gets into the lungs... and keeps doing that over time.
no chance for that to happen with kissing...

No... you will possibly desire to get transmission of human papilloma virus (HPV) and, theoretically, place your self at bigger danger for cancers of the throat and tonsils, yet no longer from smokeless tobacco. by ability of how... people who dip regularly get the main untreatable cancers of the top and neck.

No one knows at this time. They did recently link a virus to cervical cancer and now there is a vaccine. Why would anyone want to kiss a dipper?
