In an absorbent article (10) including an absorbent structure (32) positioned between the top sheet (12) and the back sheet (14), the absorbent structure (32) includes an upper layer (28), a lower layer (30), and an elongate, absorbent core (40), which is formed from cellulosic fibers and from distributed particles of a super-absorbent polymer (SAP), and which has an elongate, central portion (40) with an absorbency under load (AUL) not less than about 12 grams/gram. Having a basis weight not more than about 150 grams per square meter and an absorbency under load (AUL) not more than about 6 grams/gram, the lower layer (30) has a minimal absorbency but is capable of transferring to a lower surface of the absorbent core (32) a liquid permeating the lower layer (30) from the absorbent core (32).
