Vikings had similar insults; saying another viking (man) "had no beard" was a deathly serious insult (literally- people got killed over it, because it was the same as saying he was no man at all). But that only works when the target of the insult is expected to be manly. In a world where females have equal capability and respect as warriors, you'd need an insult that implies weakness and works regardless of the targets six... "milk drinker" fills the bill in Skyrim, with a decent Nord (viking) flavor.
