Women don't always want to be touched lightly either.

Just a noob mistake, have to either prop up your leg on a seat or soapdish if you're shower is equipped and you have good balance or sit down and put your foot on the floor. Take the leg slipping out of the equation and hopefully there will be no more chunks removed-ouch!
As for the other comment, to keep the shaving analogy going.... after the blade dulls a bit from use, more pressure is usually acceptable!
