Worth noting here that this article of the constitution already had to be changed once because the European human rights court ruled that treating men and women differently isn't allowed. The case wasn't about the stipulation that only men need to serve but about one explicitly preventing women from doing so, and thus Article 12a (1) remained intact; But it stands to reason that it would be struck down if somebody brings the case before the courts, especially since there is precedent now.
