The expulsions of your body can be a good indicator of health. Colour and consistency are important, regardless of which particular hole it came out of. I don't admire anything lovingly, but taking a look just makes sense.

Regarding defecation, it's not just colon cancer. All manner of intestinal issues will show up prominently in the bowl. I have Crohn's Disease, and when I see the doctor one of the first questions always asked pertains to the frequency and nature of my bowel movements. I more or less have to look as part of my regular health maintenance.
