You gotta do what you need to do. At our ukulele club I
have to lead (no other strong singers that can be heard over 12-15 strumming ukes) so I have consistently put songs in my preferred keys. If someone else wants to sing it differently, I can transpose or sing harmony parts, but most folks in our beginner-skewed group usually cannot.
Some of the ladies complain because a male voice is usually a fourth or fifth lower than females. I'm a bari-tenor with a range from the low F# on the guitar up to the open e string. Sometimes when I'm warmed up and singing loudly, I can push a note or two on the high end.
