Not necessarily. Queen Mebd (say 'Maive') was one person you wouldn't want to do battle with.
Scathac was a female martial arts teacher. One of her more famous students was CuChulainne. But then, she was Scotts. Celtic people, the Irish and Scotts especially used to do battle with invaders with men, women, and older children all fighting naked except for blue body paint. At least historians said it was paint, could have just been the normal cold weather.
