While it is true that Filipinos are easily satisfied, this trait does not mean they are lazy. It simply means that their priorities are centered on family and relationships, rather than mere material things.
It is also not true that physical and mental activities are avoided by Filipinos, as most of them are hardworking laborers and would accept any job, so long as it would provide for their families (even going abroad).

Indolence (laziness or slothfulness) is a stereotype and a racial slur. The use of a term like this implies that everyone in the islands is lazy. That is obviously not the case; such a term cannot be tagged onto an entire culture or nation. Clearly, there are lazy Filipinos. There are industrious Filipinos. There are lazy people and industrious people from every culture. It is absurd and wrong to categorize a whole people this way.
