Kissing and petting are often considered forms of sexual activity, but they may not be considered full sexual intercourse. The definition of sex can vary depending on cultural, personal, and legal perspectives.

Is doing everything but sexual intercourse still considered sex?

Yes, such things as groping, taking off parts of clothing (usually classified of "petting" in my day) giving hickies (bruised marks on the side of the neck) touching or feeling genitals, but not leading to intercourse are all related to the sex act; even French kissing is as close to the sexual act as one can get and it's meant to mean that. I would say that when your sex organ is inside a body cavity of another person, then you are engaging in sex. Anything else is just playing or fooling around , or petting.
