1Opinion of the Court
RYAN, Circuit Judge.
The plaintiff, Terry L. Yeary, a male, brought suit against his employer, a supervisor, and a coworker, under Title VII, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e et seq., alleging that he was sexually harassed by the male coworker, Robert E. Lee. The defendants appeal from the district court’s interlocutory order denying their motion to dismiss, and contend that the plaintiffs claim for same-sex sexual harassment is not cognizable under Title VII. We reject their contention, and will affirm.
