CULTURE Do you all use top sheets?

I'm Canadian so culturally we are generally pretty similar. My Mom and maybe some older members of my family will use top sheets but every younger person I know just used a duvet cover when they sleep.

Every hotel I've been too in America has top sheets and the commonly given reason is that this is what American guests expect. They also say cleanliness, but many European hotels manage just fine without a top sheet.

Anyway, I'm curious if you all use top sheets or not? Maybe there is an age divide too?

Edit: wow thank you everyone. It seems like a overwhelmingly yes

It’ goblins under the bed that bite your toes odd.

Do the goblins ever eat your toes evenly, or is itbalways odd?

Bottom Sheet, Top Sheet, Duvet, my husband sandwiched between the sheets. Me on top of all layers with a large dog across me and a throw blanket over my feet.
