1. A disposable absorbent insert for use with a reusable outer cover adapted to be worn about a wearer's lower torso, the insert having a longitudinal length, a central longitudinal axis, an insert forward region, an insert rearward region, and an insert lateral axis between the insert forward and rearward regions and equally dividing the longitudinal length, comprising an insert indicium disposed thereon; wherein the insert is asymmetric across the insert lateral axis, and is adapted to function on and/or fit the wearer optimally with the insert forward region disposed proximate to a torso front region of the wearer's lower torso and the insert rearward region disposed proximate to a torso rear region of the wearer's lower torso; wherein the insert indicium provides information to a user concerning correct front-rear orientation of the insert with respect to the reusable outer cover or the wearer; wherein the insert is asymmetric about the insert lateral axis by having a different weight of superabsorbent polymer or absorbent gelling material present across the insert lateral axis; wherein the insert comprises a user grasp structure extending from an end edge of the insert forward region or an end edge of the insert rearward region, wherein the user grasp structure defines an aperture therein; a first fastener component in the insert forward region and on a first side of the central longitudinal axis; a second fastener component in the insert forward region and on a second side of the central longitudinal axis and oppositely disposed about the central longitudinal axis with respect to the first fastener component; and a third fastener component in the insert rearward region and intersecting the central longitudinal axis.
