There have been some evidence that a society of female warriors did exist, and the man that wrote about them was known to embellish, not lie.
that being said, it has been proven that about half of all vikings were female. A dig from way back when of a viking grave yard in england showed a number of warriors. The dudes saw their weapons and just classified them as male, it wasn't untill a few years ago that someone actually looked at the bones. Turns out half of the warriors were female.
