The men carved the meat in our family, but maybe that’s a fairly recent tradition in the last century or so.

I bend the wings under the breast and cover the drumsticks with foil. I can assume over the hundreds of years those appendages still were the first to cook and brown before the turkey was fully cooked. I have relatives that fight over the dark meat. This could be the way they prevented them from burning before they had aluminum foil?

Typical woke re-writing of history.
Carving the turkey was a mans job.
After all, the real name for them is a manchette.
Yes MANchette.

“prior to the introduction of the carving-fork.”
Props to that guy who invented the fork. I’m surprised it to until the late 19th century for someone to think of that.
