won't the odor / gasses in the (dirty) gray tank escape thru the sinks and shower drain? are the p-traps enough?

on a black holding tank it vents thru the roof and toilet is sealed with the valve & water to prevent gasses escaping into the living area.
P-traps are more than enough to stop the odors. If they didn't you would have odors in your house since the black and grey water are in the same pipe and also the traps are the same ones in your RV.
