I don't think the thigh is in much jeopardy except unless, as you are drawing, you angle the muzzle towards your thigh.
How about your foot? When I pocket carry and I am standing the muzzle is pointed towards my foot but when either sitting or standing the barrel is parallel with my thigh so a discharge from that angle doesn't seem likely to cause a devastating wound to the thigh but I could imagine a superficial wound or burn. The leg, i.e. the area between the knee and the ankle seems like it would be mostly out of harms way.
