Do the human X and Y chromosomes cross over at male meiosis?

Yes, but only at limited regions called pseudoautosomal regions (acts like autosomes). Most part of the Y chromosome carry genetic information solely inherited in males, these genetic information will NEVER cross over with the X chromosome during meiosis. But at pseudoautosomal regions, the genetic information contained there are shared by both male and female, therefore are possible to be crossed over.
