Apparently you're right. I have seen instances of members of this group self labelling as an "SJW" though.

In practice, when someone refers to themselves as an SJW they mean they are the sort of person who's likely to be labeled that way. Similar to "bleeding heart liberal" a generation ago, I guess.
