It's less about skills and more about strength. You need both to be a good fighter. You can be the most skilled fighter in the world and you'll still get your ass beat if your opponent doesn't even notice when you hit him. Rey looks like she needs to have Kylo open jars for her.
It's slightly less egregious with things like lightsabers and the force, which almost take strength entirely out of the equation, but they just had to show her performing an implausible feat of strength first, to prove that she's better than men even with 0 MP.
