So the thing is, if it can spread STDs, then it is sexual intercourse, regardless if it can get a woman pregnant or not. Mono is not an STD though. It's only called "the kissing disease", because the Epstein-Barr virus is spread through saliva, mucous from the nose, and tears. I had an acquaintance get mono, and she did not get it from kissing. :P
