Oh, well, I thought she was referring to the nomal E. Coli in the digestive tract that can be harmful elsewhere (like by saying E. Coli she was alluding to her rectum) but since I wasn't part of the original conversation I don't know the entire context.
Well I'm not sure about that, but I always thought that was (at least part of) why it was bad for things to be contaminated with feces and why you can get sick from ingesting fecal matter. I know intestinal bacteria can at least cause UTIs and vaginal infections.
How do I put this, if your fecal matter contains a disease then you already have that disease your body is essentially purifying what you put into it to through digestion. As disgusting as it might seem your feces are far cleaner than what you originally ate. It's other diseased people's feces which are the problem.
Harmless forms of E. Coli are given as oral medications at times. They truly are harmless and also ubiquitous it is definitely on your skin, sometimes in the mouth and sometimes found in the vagina or penis. However some normally harmless E. Coli can be harmful to the urinary tract and it is true that women should be particularly careful of wiping in the wrong direction or anal to vaginal sexual intercourse as they could introduce uropathogenic E. Coli to the urinary tract. As the female urinary tract is very short and therefore exceptionally prone to infection. Also yeasts are an issue to the vagina. Anal to vaginal contact is probably best avoided for this reason.
It is bad for food or water to be contaminated with fecal matter because the risk is that a sick person's fecal matter could then spread to other people. If the food and water was contaminated with fecal matter only from healthy people or only yourself then there would be no risk, though obviously it would seem gross to us. Other mammals routinely eat their own feces and actually must do so to fully digest material and access needed vitamins. Luckily we have a large enough digestive system to avoid this need.
Is it normal that my boyfriend finds anything a hot girl does amazing?

But there isn't normal non-harmful E. Coli in the digestive tract that becomes harmful elsewhere...
