An absorbent article (10) has a longitudinal direction (26) and a lateral direction (24). The article includes a backsheet layer (30), a liquid-permeable topsheet layer (28), and an absorbent body (32) sandwiched between the topsheet layer (30) and topsheet layer (28). A surge management member (46) is joined between the topsheet layer (28) and the absorbent body (32), and the surge management member(469, includes at least a first nonwoven fabric layer (52).In particular aspects, the article 810) can be bent around a weares`s body contours with a reduced tendency to form a transverse channel crease (76) along the cross-direction of the surge management member, particularly ehen the surge member 846) is curved trough the wearer`s crotch region. In further aspects, the article (109 can be bent around a predeterminad radius of curvature substantially without forming, within the surge management member (469, a severe channel crease 876) that extends over a significant portion of a corresp onding lateral width (78) of the surge management member (46).
